Title: Modeling layered non-pharmaceutical interventions against SARS-CoV-2 in the United States with Corvid Document date: 2020_4_11
ID: 3oovwwem_30
Snippet: In brief, Corvid creates communities of about 2000 people, and to simulate larger populations, many little communities are created and connected through commuting patterns. Synthetic populations for US locations are created by generating enough communities to represent each census tract, with a population size matching the 2000 US Census data, and linking those communities using commuter data from that Census. Unfortunately, more recent censuses .....
Document: In brief, Corvid creates communities of about 2000 people, and to simulate larger populations, many little communities are created and connected through commuting patterns. Synthetic populations for US locations are created by generating enough communities to represent each census tract, with a population size matching the 2000 US Census data, and linking those communities using commuter data from that Census. Unfortunately, more recent censuses did not offer the commuting data. Individuals are in 5 age bins: pre-school, school-aged, young adult, older adult, and elderly. Individuals are generated by populating the communities with families with the household sizes and age distribution drawn from the 1% public use microdata sample (PUMS) of the 2000 Census (https://www.census.gov/main/www/pums.html). The use of PUMS data was introduced to FluTE after the [13] publication.
