Nowcasting for Real-Time COVID-19 Tracking in New York City: An Evaluation Using Reportable Disease Data From Early in the Pandemic by Greene, Sharon K, McGough, Sarah F, Culp, Gretchen M, Graf, Laura E, Lipsitch, Marc, Menzies, Nicolas A, Kahn, Rebecca

“…ResultsNowcasts with a 2-week moving window and a negative binomial distribution had lower mean absolute error, lower relative root mean square error, and higher 95% prediction interval coverage than nowcasts conducted with a 3-week moving window or with a Poisson distribution. Nowcasts conducted toward the end of the week outperformed nowcasts performed earlier in the week, given fewer patients diagnosed on weekends and lack of day-of-week adjustments. …”

Exploratory Research on the Health and Social Outcomes of Public Housing by Mark Smith, Aynslie Hinds, Heather Prior, Dan Chateau

“…The data were modeled using a Poisson distribution (rate ratio, RR). Results Compared to the matched cohort, individuals accepted into public housing showed a significant decline in number of hospitalizations (pre RR=1.58 (1.53, 1.63), post RR=1.23 (1.19, 1.27), days in hospital (pre RR=1.66 (1.64, 1.68), post RR=1.24 (1.23, 1.26) and visits to the emergency department (pre RR=1.57 (1.52, 1.62), post RR=1.42 (1.38, 1.47). …”

Prediction of daily and cumulative cases for COVID-19 infection based on reproductive number (R0) in Karnataka: a data-driven analytics by Kuralayanapalya Puttahonnappa Suresh, Sharanagouda S. Patil, Bharath Prasad Cholanayakanahalli Thyagaraju, Srikantha Gowda Ramkrishnappa, Divakar Hemadri, S. Chandrashekara

“…This was performed to mimic the probable cumulative epidemic trajectories and predict future daily incidence by fitting the data to existing daily incidence and the estimated R0 by a model based on the assumption that daily incidence follows Poisson distribution. The maximum-likelihood (ML) value of R0 was 2.242 for COVID-19 outbreak, as on June 2020. …”

Earthquake probability in the National Seismic Hazard Maps for Japan and people’s risk perceptions: the search for more effective expression by Sayaka Saito, Shinya Yasumoto, Naoya Sekiya

“…The 3.0% occurrence probability within 30 years can be reworded to 2.0% occurrence probability within 20 years, 0.1% occurrence probability within a year, 4.9% occurrence probability within 50 years, or 39.4% occurrence probability within 500 years when being converted according to a Poisson distribution. In this study, we convert the occurrence probability within 30 years in the seismic hazard maps to obtain that within a year up to that within 1000 years, present the involved risk and demonstrate the yearly probability of the people who see the maps becoming most convinced of the need for countermeasures. …”
