Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, a plethora of modeling studies related to COVID-19 have been released. While some models stand out due to their innovative approaches, others are flawed in their methodology. To assist novices, frontline healthcare workers, and public health policymakers in navigating the complex landscape of these models, we introduced a structured framework named MODELS. This framework is designed to detail the essential steps and considerations for creating a dependable epidemic model, offering direction to researchers engaged in epidemic modeling endeavors.
自 COVID-19 大流行开始以来,已经发布了大量与 COVID-19 相关的建模研究。虽然有些模型因其创新方法而引人注目,但其他模型在方法学上存在缺陷。为了帮助新手、一线医护人员和公共卫生政策制定者在这些模型的复杂领域中进行导航,我们引入了一个名为 MODELS 的结构化框架。该框架旨在详细说明创建可靠传染病模型的基本步骤和考虑因素,为从事传染病建模工作的研究人员提供指导。
