Once things open up and it’s time to plan meetings and events, COVID-19 tracking maps can be invaluable. Here are a few that can help.
COVID-19 Tracker
This COVID-19 Tracker from Microsoft’s Bing search engine, a tracking map, includes stats by country, outbreak maps, and comparisons.
COVID Event Risk Model
Visit Flanders, the tourist office for Flanders, Belgium, in conjunction with Karel de Grote University College in Belgium and the Belgian Government, has created a COVID Event Risk Model (CERM) matrix for conference and meeting planners that want to organize events in Belgium. Planners can fill out a questionnaire focused on 20 parameters known to reduce the spread of the virus and will be able to gauge their trade show for potential risks. It can be accessed here.
COVID Trends
This website offers statistics in real-time highlighting COVID-19 hotspots.
COVID Alerts
COVID Act Now, a nonprofit organization that consists of a multidisciplinary team of technologists, epidemiologists, health experts, and public policy leaders working to provide disease intelligence and data analysis on any COVID threat in the US, has created an alert system that can help.
COVID Alerts let you know when the COVID threat level, based on metrics critical to monitoring COVID, such as infection growth rate and ICU capacity, changes in the county or state you are considering. Sign up here to receive alerts about the state and/or county you want to keep track of.
