List priority diseases for database #237
Comments
@joshwlambert Could you link to what has been done so far and/or a current prioritisation list? Or are you looking for something from scratch? |
A list of what is already available is provided here: https://epiverse-trace.github.io/epiparameter/articles/data_protocol.html#scope-of-package. Please feel free to add to this list, create a new one from scratch, or highlight diseases/pathogens within this list that should be more comprehensively represented. |
Great. We had a discussion with MSF about their priorities, and so additions to that list based on their prioritisation list would be diphtheria, Lassa, CCHF, Typhoid, Hepatitis E, cholera, Nipah. |
Thanks! I'll leave this issue open for the rest of the day for others to add and then make an issue for each of these to target. Please also mention if there are any priority parameters for each of this either here or in issue #238. |
Diseases that lead to outbreaks in humanitarian crises contributed by @ruoranepi in #276.

Please also add explanation for why a disease is a priority and the use case that it applies to (including R packages). E.g. an Ebola onset-to-death distribution is required for calculating the unbiased case-fatality risk using the R package {cfr}.
