Summary

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a surge in the development of real-time dashboards and data analytics tools across various organizations, including those in the public sector. Researchers have created a dashboard called COVID RED to evaluate the performance of England's Test Trace Isolate system by analyzing publicly available data from sources such as Public Health England, National Health Service, and Office of National Statistics. The dashboard provides interactive maps to visualize the spread of COVID-19 across different locations, helping decision-makers understand the effectiveness of the system in controlling outbreaks and reducing transmission. By analyzing key stages of the response, including Find, Test, Trace, Isolate, and Support, researchers aim to identify areas for improvement and optimize the overall performance of the system.
