hiscovid for visualizing and identifying when policymakers made mistakes against COVID-19

There are two types of policy outcome analysis tools: snapshot tool and time-series tool. hiscovid is a time-series policy outcome scoring tool of COVID-19 policies by country where the daily cumulative population mortality is used for scoring the outcomes of COVID-19 country policies to visualize and identify when policymakers made mistakes. hiscovid allows policymakers to observe the progress and transition of scores over time to learn lessons from the past decision-making mistakes for correcting the current policies to reduce unnecessary deaths. The lower the score, the better the policy. hiscovid attracted 1480 users worldwide.

Policy analysis and data mining tools for controlling COVID-19 policies

Much research has been done on the efficacy of vaccines against the COVID-19 pandemic, but the claims have not yet been realized in the real world. This paper proposes three COVID-19 policy outcome analysis tools such as jpscore for scoring and revealing the best prefecture policy in Japan, scorecovid for scoring and revealing the best country policy in the world, and finally hiscovid for visualizing and identifying when policymakers made mistakes in time-series scores. Poorly scored countries or prefectures can learn good strategies from the best country or prefecture with excellent scores. Three tools are based on a single metric dividing the number of COVID-19 deaths by the population in millions. Three tools suggest us that the sustainable mandatory test-isolation strategy should be adopted in the world for mitigating the pandemic. This paper also addresses what is lacking in Japan for scientific evidence-based research for mitigating the pandemic. Visualization tools and sorted and time-series scores of policy outcomes help policymakers make the right decisions.

scorecovid for scoring individual country COVID-19 policies in the world

There are two types of policy analysis tools: snapshot tool and time-series tool. scorecovid is a snapshot tool to score individual COVID-19 policies in the world and sort a list of scores. The population mortality rate is used for evaluating the outcomes of COVID-19 country policies. The lower the score, the less the COVID-19 deaths. The lower the score, the better the policy. The scorecovid tool is intended for poorly scored countries to learn good strategies from countries with excellent scores where scorecovid attracted 15192 users worldwide.
