Abstract

Who: Consortium of experts in public health, eHealth, behavioral sciences, mathematical epidemic modeling, governance and data analytics. What: Interactive dashboards are being developed to support decision-making regarding local lockdowns. These dashboards are complementary to the dashboards being developed by the Dutch government, because they contain new types of information: regional, current trends in risky behavior, and mobility between regions. When: October 2020 - March 2022. The first prototype dashboards will be available in early 2021. How: Mathematical models are used to quantify risk predictions and develop an early warning system in the form of interactive dashboards. To achieve implementation, the response from policymakers is used as input to improve the dashboards. Why: This project helps make informed regional decisions in a timely manner to contain the spread of the virus.
