A COVID-19 Reopening Readiness Index: The Key to Opening up the Economy 2020-05-26 .txt text/plain 3487 185 55 Using various measures for each state including mortality, hospitalizations, testing capacity, number of infections and infection rate has allowed for the creation of a composite COVID -19 Reopening Readiness Index. Using various measures for each state including mortality, hospitalizations, testing capacity, number of infections and infection rate has allowed for the creation of a composite COVID -19 Reopening Readiness Index. First, a sub-index was created for each of the identified indicators related to COVID-19: the number of new daily cases, the number of hospitalized patients, death counts, tests given, and positive tests as a percent of total tests at a state level. These indexes are calculated based on the three-day rolling averages of the key metrics to minimize irregular fluctuation in the daily data and still provide easily identifiable trends over time. . https://doi.org/10.1101 The COVID-19 Reopening Readiness Index provides a universal and unbiased perspective of viewing each state's progress towards containing the spread of the virus or regressing over time. ./cache/cord-348963-1faxyx9x.txt ./txt/cord-348963-1faxyx9x.txt
