Hiscovid for visualizing and identifying when policymakers made mistakes against COVID-19.

Abstract

There are two types of policy outcome analysis tools: snapshot tool and time-series tool. hiscovid is a time-series policy outcome scoring tool of COVID-19 policies by country where the daily cumulative population mortality is used for scoring the outcomes of COVID-19 country policies to visualize and identify when policymakers made mistakes. hiscovid allows policymakers to observe the progress and transition of scores over time to learn lessons from the past decision-making mistakes for correcting the current policies to reduce unnecessary deaths. The lower the score, the better the policy. hiscovid attracted 1480 users worldwide.
