Description: As U.S. public health agencies consider COVID-19-related mobile surveillance programs, they will need to address privacy concerns to encourage broad uptake and protect against privacy harms. This eight-page report discusses how otherwise, COVID-19 mobile surveillance programs likely will be ineffective and the data collected unrepresentative of the situation on the ground.

Description: To address the ventilator allocation problem during the COVID-19 pandemic, the authors of this 16-page report designed a model that can be used to calculate the number of ventilators and respiratory therapists needed to achieve a target wait time - the average delay for a ventilator experienced by a new patient. The target wait time corresponds with a probability that any wait is experienced: If the average wait is small, most patients would in fact experience no wait at all.

Description: This 164-page report evaluates the short- and long-term privacy harms associated with the use of mobile phone surveillance programs during the COVID-19 pandemic, including political, economic, and social harms. The authors consider whether two potentially competing goals can be achieved concurrently: the use of mobile phones as public health surveillance tools to help manage COVID-19 and future public health crises, and the protection of privacy and civil liberties.

Description: This four-page document provides a list of strategies to help U.S. hospitals create critical care surge capacity during the COVID-19 pandemic. The list was created using a review of scientific literature about past outbreaks and the current COVID-19 pandemic, a survey of frontline clinicians conducted in collaboration with the American College of Emergency Physicians, and two roundtables conducted via teleconference with leading emergency and critical care physicians and public health and preparedness experts from around the country.

Description: The authors of this 16-page report examine liability and compensation issues as they relate to the future distribution and administration of the COVID-19 vaccine. They provide a brief history of how the U.S. government has addressed liability and compensation concerns in previous public health threats - specifically by providing liability immunity to manufacturers and distributors of vaccines should lawsuits arise as the result of serious side effects, as well as by setting up compensation systems that provide some, but not all, benefits of traditional tort litigation.

Description: If different regions face pandemic peaks at different points in time, supply shortfalls in regions suffering high infection caseloads (hot spots) can potentially be reduced by minimizing idle inventory and acquisitions of new supplies in regions with contemporaneously low infection caseloads (cool spots). This 16-page report discusses a potential backstopping mechanism for addressing that inefficient distribution. It also offers observations on how to evaluate whether the proposed mechanism could provide benefits over alternative responses in the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.

Description: The authors of this 20-page report assess five approaches to screening for symptoms of COVID-19 at the workplace: no screening, verbal screening, screening using a paper form or app, verbal screening plus a temperature check at the workplace, and screening using a paper form or app plus a temperature check at the workplace. They rate each approach on five criteria: likelihood of detecting infection, helping employees feel safer, safety of the screening interaction, feasibility, and privacy.
