Abstract

COVID Twitter Activity Analysis is an application that aims to monitor Twitter activity and detect tweets that may be related to positive cases of COVID-19. The collected data will be analyzed in order to help the FOPH to find out more about the spread and development of this pandemic in Switzerland and to identify clusters and other waves at an early stage.
