Nextstrain est un projet open source visant à exploiter le potentiel scientifique et de santé publique des données du génome des agents pathogènes. Ce site Web offre une vue constamment mise à jour des données accessibles au public ainsi que de puissants outils d’analyse et de visualisation à l’usage de la communauté. L’objectif principal est d’aider à la compréhension épidémiologique et d’améliorer la réponse aux flambées. Les données spécifiques concernent COVID19 avec une classification par zone géographique.

An open-resource literature hub known as LitCovid curates the most comprehensive collection of international research papers so far on the new coronavirus disease COVID-19. Developed with the support of the US National Institutes of Health’s intramural research programme, LitCovid is updated daily with newly published articles. The aim is to provide timely insight from the scientific literature into the biology of the virus and the diagnosis and management of those who have been infected.

LitCovid has a more sophisticated search function than existing resources. It identifies roughly 35% more relevant articles than do conventional keyword-based searches for entries such as ‘COVID-19’ or ‘nCOV’. Furthermore, the articles are categorized by topic — overview, disease mechanism, transmission dynamics, treatment, case report and epidemic forecasting — as well as by geographic location for visualization on a world map.
