Where There’s a Link, There’s a Way

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, there has been a proliferation of websites and portals developed to share resources about the topic. Your challenge is to find innovative ways to present and analyze integrated, real-time information about the environmental factors affecting the spread of COVID-19.

A Study of Outlier Survivors to Find Environmental and Health Factors in an App

Summary

People with high risk co- morbidities may survive the covid-19 infection nonetheless. Solicit their participation and then use the databases connected to an app to find out what correlates with their successful recovery. Then search for causation.

How I Addressed This Challenge

A multivariate correlation will be performed between volunteer health data, lifestyle data, and environmental data to find significant correlates between these factors and survivors vs the same factors vs the general population of those confirmed infected with avian and covid-19 viruses using publicly available data.

How I Developed This Project

There is a reported high level of correlation between metabolic vitamin D3 status and survivorship and infection outcome. Because D3 status is also correlated with sunlight availability, climate, and latitude, NASA "MTPE" data will be used to explore these relationships
