We just added a plea for more interdisciplinary work between the epidemiological modelling community and the social simulation community to develop more credible models for a COVID19 pandemic response strategy on RofASSS (https://rofasss.org/2020/04/08/get-out-of-your-silos/), and would like to post a reference to this RofASSS post to the epidemiological modelling community to encourage collaborations between the two communities.
Does anyone know any active epidemiology or public health modelling discussion groups?
Johns Hopkins has a "Global Health NOW" newsletter ( https://www.globalhealthnow.org/) that is fairly well subscribed, it may be worth reaching out to them about collaboration since a fair number of epidemiologists that do agent-based modeling subscribe to it. Not quite the same as a listsrv like SIMSOC, but it may be a start.
Sharing two sources:
IHME: https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america
IDM: https://covid.idmod.org/
Both organizations specializes in disease modeling and heavily funded by Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
