The New England Statistical Society (NESS) has posted the following. Sharing in case anyone is interested. Please feel free to pass along:
"The outbreak of COVID-19 is developing into a major crisis and it impacts every aspect of our daily life. In response to the pandemic, CDC has announced a collaborative challenge to help forecast the coronavirus activity in the United States. Our former NESS VP Nick Reich and his team led the development of the guidelines with CDC.
In the attached document, please find detailed information about this open data project. All individuals and teams from our society are highly encouraged to join this collaborative effort and put our expertise to good use in fighting the infectious disease."
