Dr. Sid Baccam, IEM’s Senior Scientist, participated in the webinar National Association of Regional Council’s (NARC) webinar “Regional Coronavirus Forecasting: Using the IEM Model for Short Term Projections of COVID-19 Cases”. The webinar highlighted IEM’s COVID-19 projection models and discussed how the models can be used to assist localities and their medical facilities to better prepare for an increase in hospitalizations, to better plan for and locate drive-through testing facilities, and to determine where increased levels of transmission may be occurring.
