There is no data shortage so that anyone curious about ongoing trends of the coronavirus pandemic. Whether online, Cable News or Talk Radio, we can access a floodless flood of numbers and information centered on theSurge of COVID-19 cases currently spread through the nation. But now, a new online COVID calculator can help you better understand your specific situation by determining the risk you face the contraction of the virus on a very local level. Greater spirits from Georgia Tech have recently launched theCOVID-19 event risk assessment planning tool, which allows you to determine how high the risk is in your own county.

So, if you are curious if it is careful to go to the grocery store, send your children to school or attend a concert, you can now know the specific risk of your community, gathering the size.

The online calculator is based on a number of data games available to the public, including COVID-19 cases reported from state health services, then provide for the number of cases currently being circulating in your area. And it is remarkably simple to use. You only need to choose the size of the gathering you plan to attend, then fly over the county in which you live (or where the meeting occurred). You can then see the probability of someone from the group with COVID-19.

In many counties, there is a 100% risk for groups of 100 or more, and there is a handful of counties where no data is available.

Joshua S. Weitz,Professor at the School of Biological Sciences At Georgia Tech, created the tool in the hope that it would help people assess their risks as companies reopen and asCase of spike in some parts of the country, including Georgia.

"The outcome ofUnderstand the risks associated with gatherings Are even more relevant than many types of businesses, including sports and universities, are considering how to reopen safely, "he said in a statement. The calculator, explained, "takes the number of cases reported in the last 14 days of each county, and multiplies it by a factor under test to estimate the number of traffic cases in a particular county.

Assuming that the counties are under-test, it is a key element of the Weitz Covid Calculator. "Specifically due to the subsecration and risk of exposure and infection, these risk calculations provide additional support for the ongoing need for social and protection measurements," says the dashboard website. "These precautions are still needed, even in small events, given the large number of traffic cases."
