The COVID-19 pandemic has proven the importance of mathematical tools to understand the evolution of epidemic outbreaks and provide reliable information to the general public and health authorities. In this perspective, we have developed ModInterv, an online software that applies growth models to monitor the evolution of the COVID-19 epidemic in locations chosen by the user among countries worldwide or states and cities in the USA or Brazil. This paper describes the software capabilities and its use both in recent research works and by technical committees assisting government authorities. Possible applications to other epidemics are also briefly discussed.
2019年冠状病毒病疫情已证明数学工具对于理解疫情爆发演变以及向公众和卫生当局提供可靠信息的重要性。从这个角度来看，我们开发了ModInterv，这是一款在线软件，它应用增长模型来监测用户在全球各国或美国及巴西的州和城市中所选地点的2019年冠状病毒病疫情演变情况。本文介绍了该软件的功能，以及它在近期研究工作和协助政府当局的技术委员会中的使用情况。还简要讨论了其在其他疫情中的可能应用。
