Concept
The challenges of modeling and forecasting the spread of COVID-19
The paper presents three models that could be used to understand the pandemic and the spread of the coronavirus in an inexpensive manner such that effective health policies could be developed for the US and other countries. The three models can be connected to each other and be specific to a region. Overall, due to the models being able to determine the effects of social distancing on the virus, they show the dangers of relaxing public health interventions when there is no vaccine or specific treatment available for the coronavirus. It is also important note that this paper was a July 2020 paper and some data is outdated.
