Tracking age breakdowns per state #53

Open metasj opened 4 years ago

metasj commented 4 years ago

I saw an issue filed about this on the CovidTracking project -- this is worth doing, but would take settling on a set of buckets to map all data into, and building a per-state model that interpolates values for those buckets from the values given [or, for states w/ line lists, perhaps recalculating precisely for the shared buckets]

Then one could ask the outlier states to standardize the buckets they use in their own reporting.

Ping me if there is still interest in this / if you've found a source for this rebucketed data.

Hi,

Yes - we reached out to CovidTracking as they seem poised to retrieve this info systematically from State Dashboards, though it seems this is not a priority with limited capacity. Our group is looking into this topic, but have run into the issues you mention. For now we suggest using Tim Riffe's dataset: https://github.com/timriffe/covid_age
