Population-Scale Longitudinal Mapping of COVID-19 Symptoms Behavior and Testing Identifies Contributors to Continued Disease Spread in the United States
Category: Article Summary
Topic: Transmission
- [pre-print, not peer reviewed] Allen et al. developed a web and mobile application to collect self-reported data related to COVID-19. Data from over 500,000 users in the US indicate that adding information beyond symptoms—such as household and community exposure, occupation, and demographics—may improve predictive models of COVID-19 risk and better inform triage of individuals for molecular testing.
