Several public health professors and students from NAU have donated their time and expertise to help understand what the future of the coronavirus will look like in Coconino County.
Samantha Sabo, a professor at the Center for Health Equity Research, said the team is working to help disease experts raise coronavirus awareness, model its growth, and help understand the hospital’s capacity. One project includes creating a model based on U.S. Census data to chart what COVID-19 outbreaks will look like for four northern Arizona counties � Coconino, Navajo, Mohave and Apache. Joe Mihaljevec, assistant professor with the School of Informatics, Computing and Cyber Systems, is taking the lead on creating the model that is fine tuned to northern Arizona’s hospital systems. Mihaljevec said it will be able to answer questions like where and how the coronavirus will spread, and how it will impact northern Arizona’s already limited hospital systems.
