Overview

By the end of this project, you will learn how to work with a tool called CONTESSA, stands for the Contact Tracing Evaluation and Strategic Support Application, published by Johns Hopkins University, which allows you to estimate how a contact tracing program may impact the spread of the virus in a community based on some indicators and metrics. This tool is essentially a dynamic transmission model that you'll customize through the application, to estimate the impact of your program. You'll also be able to strategize about how to improve the impact of contact tracing programs.

Notes: This project works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.
