The Epidemiology and Demography of COVID-19

We are learning more everyday about the impact of COVID-19 on the US and other populations around the world, and gradually gaining a greater understanding of the trajectories of infection and mortality rates. As more information becomes available, the accuracy of projected trajectories and demographic differences in incidence and prevalence of infections and mortality rates will grow.

The Epidemiology and Demography of COVID-19

We are learning more everyday about the impact of COVID-19 on the US and other populations around the world, and gradually gaining a greater understanding of the trajectories of infection and mortality rates. As more information becomes available, the accuracy of projected trajectories and demographic differences in incidence and prevalence of infections and mortality rates will grow.

That will allow greater confidence in our knowledge of what future conditions are likely to prevail under different policy intervention scenarios, especially those regarding the economy. Our understanding of population dynamics allows us to better predict who is going to be affected most, and where resources should be directed now and in the future. The site will serve as a repository for the accumulation of epidemiology and demography information and its policy implications.
