Re: From NiCAR on Data Literacy

Thanks for the nice note, Jonathan.  I will post this to some of my more knowledgeable, statistically orientated colleagues and see what they might have to say.

hey tom,

I enjoyed your comment on data literacy among journalists. One my stats nerds in my little AI shop actually put in his own time and effort to build a more flexible framework for analyzing covid cases.


He promptly got a wave of nastigrams. I posted it on the NiCAR listserve to help out. Only good old Stephen Doig responded. He thought it was interesting. But he could offer no tangible advice on how to publish it or further its cause. Would it be something you and your group might be interested in? It's based on VERY simple statistical assumptions that I can clearly explain.

Clearly it should help any public health official or administrator to make better choices on managing a pandemic. It's a lovely idea.

Thoughts?
