  • Group Testing in a Pandemic: The Role of Frequent Testing, Correlated Risk, and Machine Learning -- by Ned Augenblick, Jonathan T. Kolstad, Ziad Obermeyer, Ao Wang
    Group testing increases efficiency by pooling patient specimens and clearing the entire group with one negative test. Optimal grouping strategy is well studied in one-off testing scenarios with reasonably well-known prevalence rates and no correlations in risk. We discuss how the strategy changes in a pandemic environment with repeated testing, rapid local infection spread, and […]
  • Physician Characteristics and Patient Survival: Evidence from Physician Availability -- by Joseph J. Doyle Jr.

    As countries around the world grapple with Covid-19, their economies are grinding to a halt. For the first time since the Great Depression both advanced economies and developing economies are in recession.
