Covid19 simulation model

We are a group of operations researchers from Columbia, Cornell, UNC and USC. We built a simulation model to predict the evolution of Covid19 in NYC under different scenarios for testing capacity and social distancing norms. We will use this blog to give updates, observations and predictions based on our model. We are also planning to use our model to predict the evolution of the pandemic in the Research Triangle region in NC. We hope that we can use our model to give some insight as the country experiments with different options to reopen. A full paper that describes our model and preliminary findings is available here.
