A research team from the Broad Insitute, Sabeti Lab - infectious disease experts from Harvard and MIT, Colorado Mesa University, Fathom, and Degree Analytics share the findings of recent research in this preprint.

Most campuses took the approach of building or using a "1 & Done" COVID response tool. But will we be prepared if another more deadly and infectious strain of COVID is released upon the world? Are we actually ready to respond to the next pandemic? This is a story about the development of the future of pandemic response tools.

At Degree Analytics, we are proud of this work which helps develop and promote the future of public health. We are still more excited about follow-up work to expand and hone these capabilities.
