Since April, PhD alumni Fernando Becerra, How-Huan Chen, and Anjali Tripathi have been working on the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health COVID-19 data and epidemiology team.  The group has used their data and visualization skills for a range of projects, including their newly created COVID Watch website.  Released for the start of flu season, the site makes data available for tracking COVID-19 and other respiratory illnesses across the country's largest county.  More at: http://publichealth.lacounty.gov/acd/ncorona2019/covidwatch/
