Assessing and combating COVID-19
Infectious diseases are estimated to cause more than 15 million deaths globally each year, an ever-evolving challenge to human health, according to the World Health Organization.
As the world rushes to contain Coronavirus (COVID-19), tracking where and how it’s spreading is difficult due to the global nature of society. Human mobility like air travel and commuting, logistics, infrastructure, and public health facilities, as well as poor socioeconomic conditions, are all important factors in modeling pandemics.
