Items corresponding to entire populations or subpopulations. Might be geographically or temporally temporally limited.

population

Dataset includes COVID-19 cumulative positive cases, cumulative deceased cases, cumulative recovered cases, currently positive, hospitalized cases, and cases in the intensive care across EU Member states, countries, and regions. The repository also contains forecast programs in python to estimate the behaviour in 6 months, using the output created by the Epidemic Modelling v0710 programmes.

An organism of a particular biological taxon that is the site of reproduction of an organism of a different taxon.

host organism

Host

Actions of groups of people in response to outbreaks.

behavior

Behavior

Homo sapiens

A disease is a disposition (i) to undergo pathological processes that (ii) exists in an organism because of one or more disorders in that organism.

disease

Disease

A disease whose physical basis is an infectious disorder

infectious disease

Infectious Disease

A Coronavirus infection that is characterized by fever, cough and shortness of breath and that has_material_basis_in SARS-CoV-2.

COVID-19

a data set that is about the human daily movement behavior of the individual huamns in a given population. 

human daily movement data set

Human Movement

A method that tries to describe logical and internally consistent sequences of events to explore how the future might, could or should evolve from the past and present.

viral Infectious disease

Viruses Infection

 A count of simulated or physical individuals in a population.

Population count

Population Count

A data set that is about either some mortality rate or the death events themselves of some individuals of a given population of a particular biological taxon.

mortality data

Mortality

a dataset that is about two or more hospital stays involving two or more patients.

hospital stay dataset

Descriptors of the behavior of an outbreak

modeling

Modeling

Projections of outbreak behavior into some future time, determined relative to a defined starting point. Might include retrospective projects or projections for current activitiy (known as "now-casting").

forecasting

Forecasting

Forecasts based on SIR (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered) models or any of the many variants of this basic famework.

compartmental models

Compartmental Models

viral respiratory tract infection

Viral Respiratory Tract Infection

Minute infectious agents whose genomes are composed of DNA or RNA, but not both. They are characterized by a lack of independent metabolism and the inability to replicate outside living host cells.

Viruses

Information about capacity, including hospital beds, PPE supplies, nursing home capacity, testing sites, therapeutics, etc.

health system capacity

Health System Capacity

a census of infectious disease control strategies put into place to reduce infection acquisitions that are part of an infection in an ecosystem.

control strategy census

Control Strategy

Event Cancellations

an infectious disease control strategy census that is about school closure infectious disease control strategies implemented in a particular geographical region.

school closure control strategy census

School Closure

cumulative death count

Cumulative Death Count

A count of individuals in a population who meet the criteria of some case definition during some time interval.
