Community venue exposure risk estimator for the COVID-19 pandemic

Abstract: Complexities of virus genotypes and the stochastic contacts in human society create a big challenge for estimating the potential risks of exposure to a widely spreading virus such as COVID-19. To increase public awareness of exposure risks in daily activities, we propose a birthday-paradox-based probability model to implement in a web-based system, named COSRE (community social risk estimator) and make in-time community exposure risk estimation during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. We define exposure risk to m… Show more

“…Apart from the CAS proposed by the authors to capture the relationship between travel-related factors and COVID-19 spread, several studies have also provided some interesting variables such as SDI ( Gao et al, 2020 ; Zhang et al, 2020 ) and Community Social Risk Estimator (the probability of people meeting potential cases in public places such as grocery stores, gyms, libraries, restaurants, coffee shops, offices, etc.) by Sun et al (2020) . SDI is removed because of its high correlation with other variables and multicollinearity.…”

“…Mangili and Gendreau (2005) and Findlater and Bogoch (2018) also warned that the increasing ease and affordability of air travel plays a critical role in spreading many infectious diseases as air travel contributed significantly to the SARS pandemic in 2003. Hence, one of the most common practices to slow down the spread of contagious disease is to limit entry points (e.g., airports and border checkpoints) to reduce the possibility of virus traveling ( Sun et al, 2020 ). It requires constant communication, information sharing, and coordination among people, communities, states, and countries.…”

“…The framework of GeoFairy2 is designed to be flexible and prepared to plugin either structured, semi-structured, or unstructured data at any time. VGI data like geo-tagged tweets or even COVID risk reports [73] can be easily plugged into GeoFairy via the Data Retrieval and Data Extraction and Fusion module, which is not hardcoded to specific data structures. In fact, besides delivering the standard well-structured data, GeoFairy already integrated Twitter RESTful API to show the related tweets from official accounts, based on the users' current location.…”
