Oliver Wyman Presents the Pandemic Navigator
Our quants and healthcare experts developed a COVID-19 model that reveals where containment and suppression efforts are working, including first peaks and post-first-peak trajectories on a regional basis.
The Oliver Wyman COVID-19 Pandemic Navigator forecasts the number of new and cumulative coronavirus cases across nearly 40 countries, incorporating the effectiveness of containment and suppression measures. It also provides insights into how to manage after the peak, as well as the ability to study potential future containment scenarios until a vaccine or a scale treatment solution is in place. The Oliver Wyman COVID-19 Pandemic Navigator provides a quantitative basis on which governments, industry groups, and companies can examine the impact of COVID-19 on business, and consider how to “reopen” responsibly.
How Has Social Distancing Slowed the Spread in Your Region?
Within our model, we’ve developed the OW COVID-19 Transmission Rate, Beta(t), the primary metric we use to monitor how well a COVID-19 outbreak is being contained in a region. It represents the rate at which new cases are being added to existing active cases – which is a strong indicator of how fast the virus is spreading.
In order to further analyze how this crucial metric responds to various types of containment measure we have correlated it with the Google Community Mobility Index which tracks the extent to which people have changed their mobility patterns in response to the crisis government directives or due to self-imposed changes.
