Special Issue – From Data to Decisions: The Role of COVID-19 Projections
As the nation responds to the COVID-19 outbreak, leaders are using modeling and projections to make evidence-based decisions about balancing population safety, health system capacity, and the economy. During this pre-recorded interview, we spoke with Dr. Rebecca Katz, who explored how decision-makers can use these tools to weigh policy tradeoffs. She discussed the range of existing models, as well as the key inputs and assumptions that drive projections.
