Martina's very good suggestion.

dth2 commented 4 years ago

If you are interested in moving beyond the theoretical, and wanted to look at King County connectivity with just essential workers Vs. essential + construction or essential + hospitality etc to inform what the potential impact of NPI rollback by sector on connectivity might look like.....

sgoodreau commented 4 years ago

Now you are talking about an actual research endeavor -- an important one, but not something we can keep doing for free at the end of our already very long work days :-)  That means it could potentially fit into the proposals Martina and I are batting around, which it would be good to get your input into, when you have a chance.  And there would need to be data....

I love this idea @dth2, let's talk. @sgoodreau is right that we'd need funding, but we have some FOAs in mind.

dth2 commented 4 years ago

I think it would have to be funded via an FOA, and I have no idea what data could be used. The Department of Labor Statistics has counts of labor participation broken out by sector, race and gender at the state level so maybe it would be a state model. I have not seen a breakout by age and I have no clue how contact rate/proximity within and between groups and household would work. L&I may have metrics for on the job proximity. I suggested this a bit tongue in cheek. It wold be a massive undertaking, but it would also be really informative for this and future outbreaks.
