Points of Distinction 2020 - Georgia State University

# data[].attributes.body
My name is Kimberly Rosales and I grew up in Georgia. I am currently experiencing my first semester as a freshman at the Georgia State University campus in Atlanta. I really enjoy traveling with my friends. My favorite item I have purchased this year is my AirPods because they help me focus on the majority of my tasks. The most surprising scientific discovery to me is genome editing. The fact that scientists are able to alter an organism's physical traits has always been interesting to me. My absolute dream job would be to work in something to do with entrepreneurship.

Students, the main reason we are collaborating with UIC is to broaden our perspective by discussing with people from other countries (US and China for this project) that could have different ideas and cases on how data has been crucial due to the pandemic.  UIC students gave us great insights based on this topic and would like to hear what GSU students' thoughts on their presentation. Is there anything you want to add? or are there any improvements needed? If so, what would be the reason and consequences that might follow? Or maybe you can explain different perspectives you got, compare to the issues driven by the presentation. Feel free to share your thoughts! :)

Hello, My name is Eshaan Patel, and I am currently a computer science major at GSU. I was born in New York, but I have been living in Georgia for about 5 years now. Ill tell you a few things about myself. Honestly not sure what my favorite item I bought this year is so I will skip this one. Some great recent "scientific discoveries" would be the new method for how they made the new covid-19 vaccines. Also vaccines in general are pretty cool. I not sure about my dream job, perhaps something to do with my cs major.

My favorite item I have bought this year would have to be my computer. My old computer had a lot of issues and still could only run windows 7 (I like windows 7 though). yet, I upgraded to a Lenovo laptop purely for school and it has made everything easier. I think the most surprising scientific discovery imaginable would be proof of an afterlife if one existed. It would 100% be something that would shock the world. My absolute dream job used to be to play professional basketball whether that was overseas or in the NBA. I dedicated the majority of my life working toward this goal and even got to play basketball on a full ride, however, I transferred to Georgia State to focus more on my academics after a year of basketball.

Hello! My name is Anh Phan, and I am from Vietnam. I moved to America when I was 3 years old. Some of my hobbies include crocheting, photography, painting, bracelet making, and playing the piano. I am a business major, but I want to be a criminal justice lawyer after I get my bachelor's degree. My absolute dream job is either to become a criminal justice lawyer, a forensic scientist or someone who gets paid to travel. My favorite thing that I have purchased this year would have to be either my bear onesie because it is warm and cute or my Waterpik flosser because it motivates me to floss more. I think the most surprising scientific discovery would be if someone figured out how to time travel. Although it can be agreed that time travel would be very problematic because it can mess with a lot of things and events, I just think it would be really cool if someone figured out how to do it or how to do it without messing with the space-time continuum.

Hello! My name is Victoria Jones and I am from Augusta,Georgia. I am a freshman at Georgia State University as a business major. I love exploring new things with my friends and am actually visiting my best friend in New York City right now. My goal in live is to do more than just survive. Being able to immerse myself in new cultures and see the beauty earth has to offer us brings me so much joy. My favorite physical item that I bought this year was a pair of Jordan 4 white oreos. I am a huge sneaker fan and love that the white oreos will go with almost any outfit. The most surprising scientific discovery that I can imagine is a fix all cure. A dose of one thing that could solve every problem. I do not have a dream job, because I have no clue what I want to choose as my career. However, my dream job would make me lots of money with few hours and I would easily be able to afford a Lamborghini Urus in cash.

Hello! My name is Meredith, I'm 19, and I love making clothes, cooking, learning new languages, and making collages. My favorite item I've bought this year has to be my laptop, I use it every day and I'm very grateful to have it. My absolute dream job would have to be a stylist/photographer I really love fashion and collaborating with other people to reach a unique vision.

Hey my name is Krishna Sheth and I was born in Toronto, Ca but moved when I was 4 years old. Some of my hobbies are Basketball, football, listening to music, and just trying new things, and going on adventures. My favorite thing I have bought this semester would probably be my AirPods Pro. Listening to music while doing my work helps me focus and my old headphones broke. The noise-canceling feature is my favorite because while I am doing my work it helps me cancel all the other noise around me. The most surprising scientific discovery in my opinion would be if there were other universes in space. Part of me believes there is and it would be very interesting to see if there will ever be any discovery. My absolute dream job would be working for an NBA team. Growing up I always wanted to play basketball but whenever I realized that was probably not happening then, I became interested in wanting to work for an NBA team because I would still be involved with basketball and that is just because I love basketball that much.

Hi, My name is Fredrick Moses, I am from Chicago IL and I moved to Georgia in 6th grade . I am a Marketing Major at Georgia State University. My dreams are to open my own business and make it a global business. I like shopping and cooking. My favorite item that I bought this year would be my MacBook Pro because I had an old MacBook Air and I needed an upgrade so I decided to buy a new lap top since I was entering college and I needed more storage for my papers. The most surprising scientific discovery would have to be the molecular structure of DNA. Just learning about DNA is fascinating. My dream job is to be the CEO of my own company.

GSU Naseefah Chowdhury Activity 1 - Introduction 

# data[].attributes.body
Hello! My name is Naseefah Chowdhury. I am a 19-year-old female college freshman that goes to Georgia State University in Atlanta, Georgia. I am a Computer Information Systems (CIS) major. I was born and raised in Lilburn, Georgia but I did live in New York for a few years. My favorite item that I bought this year is either my iPhone 12 Pro Max or Don Tolliver concert tickets. I have had an iPhone 7 for 4 years so finally getting an iPhone 12 was great because it was faster and the battery health was better. I also liked the Don Toliver concert because I could experience 2 of my favorite artists, Don Toliver and Travis Scott, in person. The most surprising scientific discovery imaginable is if someone had superpowers like teleportation. I am late to everything so teleportation is my dream. If scientists could discover how to teleport, or someone teleporting, that would be incredible. I currently do not know what I want to do in life, but I know my dream job consists of helping people and traveling the world.

My name is Ruben Leon and I have lived in Georgia in the US for my whole live and I have now moved to Atlanta to attend Georgia State in pursue of a Finance Major.
In the future the careers I am interested in is budget analyst, investor relations associate and an accountant.
The most surprising scientific discovery in my opinion is the discovery of Higgs boson which basically explained why other particles have mass in our universe. The Higgs field gave mass to other particles such as electrons which help its resistance to changing speeds and positions
The most important thing I have purchase in the past year would have to be my apple watch. The reason being it helped me in keeping track of my activity and calorie deficit as over the past few months I have lost a-lot of weight and as of now I am just working on building muscle instead of losing weight.
Some of my hobbies are playing billiards, going to the gym, playing video games if I have the time and keeping up to date with news about the economy and stock market.
I hope you have a great rest of your day and I look forward to working with all of you.

Hello, My name is Rosy. I am a first year student here at GSU! I am currently majoring in business marketing. Some of my favorite things to do are travel! Some of my favorite places i’ve visited have been Italy and France. One of my favorite items i’ve bought this year has to be my mini projector because it makes watching tv a lot cooler than a regular tv. I think that a crazy scientific discovery would be a cure to cancer, it would be something exciting and new. Unfortunately, I don’t know what my dream job is. Im not sure what i want to spend the rest of my life doing.

# data[].attributes.body
My Favorite item I've bought this year was tickets to go see Kanye.
The most surprising discovery would be a new dinosaur being discovered.
My Dream job is a Sports Marketer.

My name is Ola Johnson-Omotere and I grew up in Georgia. I am currently in my first semester as a freshman at the Georgia State University campus in Atlanta, current major is Computer Information Systems. I really enjoy playing sports especially basketball and soccer and also playing video games on my free time. My favorite item I have purchased this year would be my Travis Scott Nike Dunks not only because it was expensive but also it was the money that I have been investing from my stocks and crypto, which made me happy that I could purchase an item like that due to my investment. The most surprising scientific discovery would be going into the future of accessing other dimensions. My absolute dream Job would be the leading Software engineer or web developer for the biggest tech company in the world.

Hi, My name is Blake Briggs and I was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio. I moved to Georgia to attend GSU. Right now I'm an interdisciplinary studies major with a concentration in Human Learning Development. I'm not really sure about my career choice right now, still trying to figure it out. One of my favorite items I have bought this year has for sure got to be my MacBook I got for school this year. The most surprising scientific discovery imaginable to me would probably be that humans can survive and live on Mars or any other planet. I know they are still trying to figure out how to get humans on Mars but I think it will be super cool when they announce they finally figured it out. My absolute dream job would probably working for a big company like Google or Microsoft or Netflix, something along those lines.

Hi, my name is Audrey Na and I’m from New Jersey. I am an undecided major. My favorite item that I have bought this year is my pepper spray because it makes me feel safe now that I am on my own. The most surprising scientific discovery imaginable would be the discovery of freezing eggs for couples who want a child but not at the current moment. I believe this is the most surprising because people always assume you can not have children when you are old due to fertility but now you are allowed a higher chance of bearing a child when older or more financially stable. I am not sure what I want to do in the future but I think I would like to become a psychologist in order to help others in need.

Hello! I’m Taylor Smith. Being a freshman at Georgia State University has been uncomfortable nonetheless, but intriguing as well. The school provides us with many resources so that we can be more comfortable while attending. I am 18 years old and my birthday is in exactly three weeks! My most valuable purchase this year would be my car. I saved up and worked hard to buy the car I wanted and needed. The most interesting proven thing by science is the fact that we are not the only solar system. There are beyond millions. With this knowledge, it is only right for me to believe that there are more creatures in the galaxy. My dream job would be to become a very successful and legitimate real estate agent. Thank you!

My name is Praise Oshiomah I'm Nigerian, I moved to the states when I was 11. I am a finance major here at Georgia state university and I am a freshman. My favorite item I bought this year would be my MacBook, because its really convenient to have a computer where I can text, make calls and do my homework all in one. My absolute dream jobs are to be a CFO, and a real estate agent, and start my own restaurant at the same time so that way I'm making money three different ways and saving for my future.

Hello everyone! My name is Jorja Baker. I am from Nassau, The Bahamas, but I moved to Atlanta, Georgia this summer at the age of 17. I'm currently a business student and a freshman at Georgia State University. Furthermore, I wish to become an actuary in the future since it is my dream job. In my spare time, I tend to read, listen to music or watch movies and shows. Also, let me know if you have any music, movie, or show recommendations, please. In my opinion, the most surprising scientific discovery would be technology since we are highly dependent on it. A fun fact about me is that I bought a phone for my grandmother in August. I think this may be the most favorite item I have purchased for this year because it helps me to communicate with her frequently despite us being over a thousand kilometers apart. As I conclude my introduction, I would like to say it is a pleasure that you spent your time reading this. I also hope you will be safe and have a great day!

Hello! I am Taylor Smith. Being a student at Georgia State University has been uncomfortable and intriguing at the same time. The school provides students with a sense of security due to the various resources available. My most valuable purchase this year would have to be my car. While working and saving up money, I was able to buy the car I wanted. The most interesting thing science has proven would be the fact that we are far from the only solar system in the galaxy. I have came up with the conclusion that we are definitely not the only creatures in the galaxy due to how big it is. My dream Kobe would be to become a successful and legitimate real estate agent.

Hi, my name is Alice Thomas. I am from Warner Robins, Georgia and am a freshman at Georgia State University. I play softball for the softball team here and that is one reason I chose to go here. I have gotten into the entrepreneurship school here and want to major in business to take over my dads State Farm office and take his agency. My favorite thing I have bought this year is a new pair of Tory earrings, I like to wear both gold and silver and they are both colors so I can wear them with anything. The most surprising scientific discovery would be for anyone to be able to go to space. Going to space is a dream I have wanted since I was a little kid after watching Little Eistiens. So going to space would be the most exciting scientific discovery.

Hi, I'm Omar. I am 20 years old and am a student at Georgia State University. My favorite item I have bought this year has been my new phone. With everything still online it is impossible to do anything without a good phone with internet. The most surprising scientific discovery I could think of would be if we could find a way to make no resources limited. So, if we found a way to replicate matter so that we wouldn't have any shortages of anything. My absolute dream job would to be in the music business producing.

Hi! My name is Yulissa Mejia and I am from Gainesville, GA.  I am currently a Undeclared Business major here at Georgia State and still working on what I want to do with business! I am also pursing a minor in Spanish because I would love to be fluent in my native language!
Something I really enjoy doing is exploring new areas and places. I say this because I find it fascinating finding the uniqueness every place holds. To be honest this is probably one of the reason on why I wanted to move to Atlanta because the things I could explore here are endless.
I would have have to say my favorite item I've bought this year would have to be my laptop! I can't even begin to explain how often I use my laptop for almost everything! Especially as a college student a laptop is probably something you need carry and use everyday!
When I think of something that would be the most surprising scientific discovery imaginable I think of the cure to cancer. I say this because after the amount of hours researchers have spent trying to find it. I feel like it would be a sign of relief and shock. I just believe that the cure would be something life changing within medical researchers.
I currently do not know what my absolute dream job is. However, I feel like I have always had a passion for business. So, the idea of owning an online business, being part of a business administration, or being a business traveling agent really calls to my idea of living my dream job.

And to eventually become a stay at home mom and have 5 kids and a loving husband.

What is the role of data in pandemics- any US and Global case?

The role of data in pandemics is to determine certain statistics like amount of infection, cases and casualties caused by a pandemic.

What tools or technology can be used to manage pandemics?

Some tools and technology that can be used to manage pandemics would be drones or scanners that can detect pandemics or sickness and also make the process contactless which helps limit a potential spread of sickness.

What are the roles of academia, businesses, and government in managing pandemics? The roles of academia, business, and government in managing pandemics are to research and respond to new findings to help find a treatment or further explanation of the pandemic.

How can academia, businesses, and government collaborate to manage pandemics effectively?

Academia, Business, and government can collaborate to manage pandemics effectively by sharing research and expanding findings.

Hello, my name is shameka reese, I was raised and born here in Atlanta Georgia. I'm currently a freshman in college here at Georgia state. my major is biology I'm not sure if it'll stay the same by the same time next year. In my free time, I just like to work or even go out, I don't like to just sit still, I try my best to stay busy. I came to college to get my bachelor's degree, since I was little I've always wanted to help others. my dream job has always been to be some type of physical therapist, I just want to help whether it's with the body or mind. My most favorite item I bought this year would have to be my first car, it felt good buying my first car and owning it. doing things on my own feels great because I work so hard for everything that I want. Lastly, I think the most surprising scientific discovery would be if mermaids were real or not. everybody has their differences and opinions about what they think and how they feel if things were real or not.

Hi, I’m Jerry Epps. I’m a first year and a business undecided, as I’m not really sure what I want in my life right now. I enjoying spending time with my friends; however, I truly value my alone time. Producing music is my favorite hobby, and I would like to change my major to something more related to music. Playing and watching sports are also other things I enjoy doing. My absolute dream job would be to develop my own app where I sell my own music to my fans without having to deal with other streaming services. Or, I would like to be the CEO of a streaming service.

Things that could prevent future pandemics would to be to stop it before it starts. Mask would be mandatory any and everywhere. Whenever the disease comes out everyone would stay home for 20 days and would only leave the house 2 days out the week to get what they need to survive only healthcare workers will be able to work but only different days of the week. Things would be cared for more and more safer to use. Prescribed medicine could prevent future pandemics. The role of future data analytics in pandemics would be to pinpoint outbreaks that could reveal where the problem is coming from or how it started and how to stop this from happening to the next person. By my research and my own opinion, I really think the data analytics would work overtime.

Hello, my name is ThuyNhu Phan but I go by Nhu. I was born in Vietnam and came to the U.S. at the age of 6. I am a freshman, currently pursuing a degree in nursing at GSU. My hobby includes watching TV dramas, listening to music, playing games, and learning languages. I speak fluent Vietnamese, English and can read and understand a good amount of Mandarin. I am working toward my minor in Chinese language and culture. I aspired to be fluent in Mandarin by the time I graduate.

As for my dream job, I originally didn’t know what I want to be but as I watch more and more medical dramas, it is definitely getting into my head. However, I can’t be a doctor because that takes a lot of patience so I want to be a nurse, specifically, a travel nurse or pediatric nurse. This is because one of my dreams is to travel the world and I also love kids.

My favorite thing I bought this year is probably my IPad case. It is a keyboard case and helps me so much with school as I don't need to carry around my laptop everywhere, adding to the weight.

I don’t have what is the most surprising scientific discoveries in mind but I do think that the discovery of the molecular structure of DNA is one of the most important discoveries ever. Now scientists can not only study our human bodies down to our genetic but outside of the science lab, it helps improve the criminal justice system. A pretty neat discovery.

GSU Naseefah Chowdhury Activity 2 - How to prevent global future pandemics

# data[].attributes.body
To prevent any future pandemics, we could implement mask mandates for any people who experience any sort of symptom or illness. We can also enforce getting vaccinated and continue to practice social distancing. Additionally, having more funding for research and supplies is also key. Data can be used to prevent future pandemics because we can look to see what works. For example, we can use the data to see how effective wearing a mask is in protecting someone from getting CoronaVirus and if it's effective, we can continue to enforce the mask mandate to prevent future pandemics. Another example would be to see how effective the Covid-19 vaccines are in preventing people from getting the virus. If the numbers are good, there should be more vaccine implementation. Data analytics could also be used to find where a potential outbreak of a disease is, allowing people to confine the outbreak. The role of data analytics is to find outbreaks and even potentially predict where the virus could travel to.

# data[].attributes.body
-I think to prevent future pandemics we need to be aware and honest with how we are feeling. For example, I do not think you need to get on a airplane or travel even if you have a common cold. I also think if a sickness like COVID-19 starts to break out again we need to go ahead and take serious precautions instead of waiting till it gets too out of hand.
- Analytics and data can be used to prevent future pandemics. Tracking numbers and statistics to where sickness is spreading, how quickly, to whom it is getting sick the fastest. I think all of those things play a part in sickness and numbers and people who study can help infrom and teach us about the next smartest step to prevent another pandemic. This being said, yes I do this analytics can prevent future pandemics.

What can we do to prevent future pandemics? Any idea? Any suggestion?

In order to minimize the likelihood of a future pandemic, I suggest the government continues to strongly encourage vaccination. There have been unnecessary outbreaks of viruses and diseases that have been around for a long time and should have been eradicated but because not enough people are vaccinated they continue to reemerge. If the government finds ways to persuade people to get vaccinated, we would be one step closer to preventing future pandemics. Now that we have experienced what it is like to live through a pandemic we should use our experience and learn from our mistakes if we ever experience another pandemic. As soon as there is news of a viral outbreak I suggest we immediately go into quarantine and practice social distancing. Wearing masks should also be made mandatory so everyone can play a part in preventing a pandemic. As humans increasingly interact with wildlife and wild environments this places the human population more at risk for animal-to-human virus transmissions. Deforestation, wildlife management, observing meat production/consumption, and stressing the importance of sanitation play a significant role in pandemics. Providing information on those factors can advise people on how to help prevent a pandemic.

How data or data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics?

Data allows us to take a look at and determine what groups are most likely to be affected by a pandemic and how severely. Perhaps groups with common characteristics are affected differently by the pandemic than other groups. With the information data provides we can be aware of the effects and use resources to protect those groups. As I previously mentioned deforestation, wildlife management, meat production/consumption, and sanitation are key factors of a pandemic. Data analytics on those subjects would help us look further into how to manage them in order to prevent a pandemic. Data analytics provide the overall effects of a pandemic not just on people but on the economy. The data provided would help find funds that could be contributed towards preventing a pandemic.

What is the role of data analytics in future pandemics?

Data analytics can help prevent future pandemics by determining where they could potentially occur next. In addition to that, data analytics can precisely detect the location of outbreaks.

1) To prevent future pandemics we could reduce virus outbreaks to prevent human infection, enhance early warning systems, guarantee all nations have pandemic response plans, coordinate scientific research, ensure rapid virus comprehension, and ensure vaccines and antiviral medications are accessible as soon as the pandemic begins.

2 and 3) Future data analytics in pandemics will be used to localize outbreaks, revealing where the problem originated, how it began, and how to prevent it from spreading to others.

* There are a couple of solutions to prevent pandemics and a study done by Harvard T.H Chan  deforestation has some connections between animal to human virus transmissions. It is stated:
" Humans and their livestock are more likely to contact wildlife when more that 25% of the original forest cover is lost, and such contacts determine the risk of disease transmission".
Also the same applies with wildlife markets and trade of wildlife which some countries do for using them as pets, food, and even medicine; however either way these also increase the risk of transmission. A solution to this is to fund or invest to monitor or police these illegal trading which would be a lot cheaper than the 10-20 trillion used in the pandemic.

* There is no limitations to the use of data in the pandemic unless depending on the laws of the right of privacy in the country. One way that data can be used in the pandemic is the use mobile sim-tracking which the country of Taiwan used to make sure everyone was going to quarantine when they needed to. However the only argument against the use of this is the invasion of privacy. The pros of Taiwan following this procedure is it has one of the best ranks in the world when it came to response as of June 2020 with 443 cases and 7 deaths and in February of 2021 940 cases with 9 deaths.

* When it comes to data analytics and foreseeing future pandemics the main question is if the past data is reliable to use for future pandemics and the uncertainty of unpredictable pandemics. However in the recent pandemic the use of data analytics has increased and the different uses such as social media data, finance data, locations data and especially health data. Data analytics can help however as of now its the test of how much individuals are willing to sacrifice in their privacy to allow companies and the government to peak into for example bank accounts, health records, and even your locations patterns and routes. The future of data analytics when it comes to pandemics is mostly relying on us the individuals and if we are willing to give up some of our privacy for data.

* Data analytics can prevent future pandemics however as I stated earlier it depends on us as individuals and our right of privacy. Data analytics has many possibilities and it can prevent future pandemics much like the country of Taiwan, and singapore with its use of technology, date and implementing strict monitoring of to ensure minimum transmission from person to person. The countries that have these strict monitoring systems and are able to check data of all individuals also have the lowest amount of cases and deaths. Overall data analytics can prevent pandemics but it all comes down to the right of individuals and the trust between the people and the government.

One important way to prevent future pandemics is to promote education on health and wellness. In today's school systems, health is usually far from top priority in learning. While wellness education may not need to carry the same weight as subjects such as math, science, or English, it should still play a bigger role than it does currently. One way to implement this is to educate students how to prevent the spread of infectious diseases such as Covid-19. This will help to prevent the spread of future viruses, as people will be much more prepared for these circumstances, making the spread of viruses less likely.

# data[].attributes.body
There are many ways to prevent future pandemics, educating people on positive health practices is very good to begin with and can decrease the number of cases through simple actions. Another way to prevent global pandemics is governments collaborating to make a plan for the next pandemic if there is one. As we are seeing with the covid-19 pandemic, pandemics are global issues not domestic. Data analytics play a very important role in preventing future pandemics, data analytics helps researches find effectiveness of vaccines, the trends of spreads of infected, and help identify the most affected religions so they could go into quarantine. Data analytics can also show effectiveness of vaccines to public which persuades them to get the vaccine further decreasing the number of new cases.

# data[].attributes.body
In order to prevent future pandemics, the best course of action would be to quickly identify potential causes of viral diseases and quickly develop safe preventative measures. The most difficult part of this, as seen from our current world, would be making sure that everybody participates and utilizes the prevention to its fullest, be it a vaccine or some other method of preventing disease. Data analytics are one way we can use to identify these potential causes by predicting how and when infectious diseases grow and spread and can be used to stop future pandemics by determining how we can prevent them from growing in the first place.

1.) In order to prevent future pandemics I feel that there should be stricter sanitation laws placed upon the populace. Not necessarily in a dictatorship way of implementation, but more awareness on cleanliness. During the pandemic and after, people sanitation was at its highest in sicknesses besides Covid dropped. There should also be more funding for disease prevention agencies and disease research facilities.

2.) We can use data analytics to not only see the hotspots for outbreaks in order to see what factors accelerate its spread, but also using scientific data found in studies and vaccines in order to prepare for other future outbreaks, enter find cures for adjacent diseases. The role of data allows us to learn from history and not repeat the same shortcomings again.

# data[].attributes.body
Prevention of a a pandemic takes widespread coordination across the entire world, and we really dropped the ball on this one. When it comes to preventing a pandemic, it is crucial to act early. Doctor Rick Bright of the Rockefeller Institute states that with data collection and sharing, an early warning system, and modern data analytics outbreaks can remain localized and a full blown pandemic can be prevented. Reflecting back on the beginning of the covid-19 outbreak, most decisions made regarding safety were made on the state level which makes sense because every state has a different population and different level of tourism or movement of people in & out, but some states were much more lenient about safety measures and prioritized resuming economic activity as opposed to extending any shelter-in-place mandates past the initial 2-6 week recommendation resulting in wildly inconsistent rates of infection between regions. This seems to be where the biggest mistake was made. States that remained in lockdown longer did see a much lower rate of infection than those who opened up early, there seemed to just be a blatant disregard for all scientific data and lack of understanding of statistics. Many people stated that they were not afraid of getting covid because it has a relatively low death rate, but this attitude is extremely dangerous because immunocompromised individuals have a much greater risk of death or long term health complications and disregarding the needs of those individuals is borderline eugenics, and also despite the relatively low death rate, covid-19 can cause permanent damage to the respiratory system or even permanent nerve damage due to hypoxia (lack of oxygen to the brain) among other severe damage, and even if the percentage of people who die from covid seems to be small, those are still people, and how some can see a human life as expendable is beyond me. Never in my life have I seen such a perfect example of American hubris, and never before has it been so apparent that we as American people have been failed by the systems meant to protect us. I do not believe that things would have gotten nearly as bad as they are if elected officials chose to listen to epidemiologists. If there is another outbreak of a disease with the potential to become a pandemic, one can only hope that scientific data is taken more seriously by those who are in charge because data analytics are absolutely the key to preventing another disaster such as this one.

We can do various things to prevent future pandemics. One of them is to use data analytics to look at patterns in history so we can easily detect when the next pandemic may come. For example, in 1918-1920 the world was faced with the Spanish Flu whiles Russia had Typhus. If we look further in 1520, Mexico experienced smallpox but in 2019 until today we are experiencing COVID-19 worldwide. Based on these patterns we can expect the next pandemic to possibly be around 3019-3020. Comparatively, after looking at patterns, we must also be able to detect the disease and come up with solutions and carry them out immediately. The quicker one finds a cure for sickness in its early stage, it has a lower percentage of spreading. This can be done by letting others know. Additionally, to this, we must listen to organizations such as The World Health Organization because it is their goal to assist governments to strengthen their public health services and to attain the highest possible level of health for all of the people. Furthermore, governments can implement weekly or weekend lockdowns and make it mandatory to wear things such as masks with a few mask breaks where persons can go outside and have their masks off for several minutes. Governments can also encourage citizens to practice better hygiene such as washing hands with soap and warm water frequently, taking baths regularly, properly eating healthy, and taking better care of their bodies to prevent a pandemic from increasing. Governments must help to educate their people on the importance of practicing safety protocols, the importance of being our brothers and sisters keeps and practicing healthy lifestyles. They can do these using social, print, and electronic media outlets. These things can help slow down the spread of any disease.

Lastly, Data analytics' helps people to be prepared for what may come and suggests to them what they should do in future pandemics. For example, data analytics helps to share information on the number of areas that need herd immunities, it can determine which gender gaps are being impacted, ethnicity, and communities that are being impacted. Ostensibly, data help make predictions on environments that may need assistance which helps to reduce future pandemics. With data analytics, we can make comparisons on how viruses and diseases affect one’s body and the environment. Hence, it can tell us what medications can use and preventable measures that can be implemented.

* There are a number of things we can do to prevent future pandemics. Starting with taking action at the start of it. This could consist with have more regulation and restrictions. I think that if we had more restrictions with going out at the beginning that could have been the start to reduce our cases. Now with going out having an enforced mask mandate and social distance that would reduce the possible transmission. Overall, a stronger regulation to begin with could have helped a better outcome.
*Data and data analytics have a huge importance to view how pandemics play out. With being able to see when outbreaks tend to occur or even to see when the lowest levels of cases occur. We could also view the development of how the virus grows and develops over time and how it affects the human population with knowing the different symptoms and levels of severity. All of this information can help prevent future pandemics and also show how past were controlled.

# data[].attributes.body
I think a way to prevent future pandemics would be to have a plan. It is impossible to stop them from happening at all however, I believe that by being prepared and having a plan future pandemics will not last as long as this one has.
Data and data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics by being able to look at trends from past pandemics and it will help safer measures be put into place in areas that have had higher transmission rates in the past.
The role of data analytics is a very big one because this pandemic was not the first and certainly won't be the last, data analytics will be able to help us learn from our past mistakes and to see what efforts put forward have worked and have not in the past.

# data[].attributes.body
1.What can we do to prevent future pandemics? Any idea? Any suggestion?
We can wear mask and also wash our hands for 20 seconds and spray down everything that we touch or use and start wearing gloves. Also do research to see what are the common causes of pandemics happening again.

2.How data or data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics? It can help keep track of how thing spread and also it can help prevent future pandemics from happening. Keeping track of numbers will definitely help prevent future causes.

3.What is the role of data analytics in future pandemics? Future data analytics in future pandemics will be greatly help in finding out the start of outbreaks revealing where the problem started from and how to prevent it from spreading around the world.

4. Do you think data analytics can prevent future pandemics? Yes I think can prevent future pandemics by having the analytics we can figure out the causes to the pandemics.

Controlling another pandemic is something we can not control but we can prevent it. To be more prepared such as having a better plan and reaction. However, small things such as staying clean by washing yours, and disinfecting your belongings more can prevent any unknown germs spread. As well as, educating people on better safety procedures. Past data and data analytics can help future pandemics and plan for future pandemics. The role of data analytics can help the government to base future pandemics on, they would know what procedures were more effective and what was least effective. As well as, see what areas are needed more help and what areas are more effected more. Data analytics are very important to deal with a future pandemic and to look at what was done right and what was done wrong, to learn from those decisions I think you can run things smoother. I believe data analytics can help to prevent future pandemics with the proper steps taken. You want to take advantage of any data you have to help you from preventing pandemics and taking the right decisions early and not respond late.

-To prevent future pandemics, some precautions should be taken, such as having a plan ahead of time to deal with it as soon as it starts. Enforcing rules that will help the public and help with the spread of new diseases such as wearing masks or social distancing can be very useful. In addition to that, continuing to maintain cleanliness can really help out a lot too.
-By using data and data analytics to study past pandemics, scientists can use this data to figure out patterns of outbreaks such as how they spread. They can also look at past solutions that worked to alleviate the effects and spread of those pandemics and apply that knowledge to current and future pandemics. Using the same strategies that worked in the past may prove to be successful in the present and future.
-The role of data analytics is to study the effects and information in general of past pandemics as well as collect data on current pandemics to prevent future pandemics before they get too bad.

What can we do to prevent future pandemics? How can data or data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics? Personally, I believe the method of using social media platforms and trends to create a "forecast" of potential, future social hazards -- such as pandemics -- is not only innovative but also extremely effective. My only concern would be whether or not political leaders will adhere to the warnings it would produce. Perhaps, another beneficial addition would be to provide predictions on the likely outcome of a potential threat if particular actions are not taken (i.e., wearing masks, distribution plans, providing adequate knowledge to the pubic, etc.). Although, this would still have to gamble whether a political leader addresses the issue adequately, it would still add an additional social pressure of "I told you so".

What is the role of data analytics in future pandemics? Do you think data analytics can prevent future pandemics? Data analytics (to my knowledge) already plays a huge role in addressing outbreaks and various other public health concerns; however, as we have seen in regard to COVID-19, it does not always produce results at the rate that is necessary to prevent a pandemic involving a virus as infectious as SARS. However, I believe it is possible to prevent future pandemics using data analytics due to its adaptive nature.

# data[].attributes.body
To prevent future pandemics, something we can primarily do is to start mandating masks in public places as well as enforcing vaccines in the country. Data can help in future research because experts will be able to detect what can help and what can't. For example, based on mask research, data shows that wearing a mask reduces the chances of catching COVID. In this case, another way Data helps future research is by being able to identify which group of people are more negatively impacted and why. Data analytics will help prevent future pandemics. Doing so by knowing when to recognize the first early signs of a pandemic and knowing the correct actions to take to prevent something as big as the coronavirus. I believe current data can help prevent future pandemics

What is the role of data in pandemics- any US and Global case?

The role of data in pandemics is to determine certain statistics like amount of infection, cases and casualties caused by a pandemic.

What tools or technology can be used to manage pandemics?

Some tools and technology that can be used to manage pandemics would be drones or scanners that can detect pandemics or sickness and also make the process contactless which helps limit a potential spread of sickness.

What are the roles of academia, businesses, and government in managing pandemics? The roles of academia, business, and government in managing pandemics are to research and respond to new findings to help find a treatment or further explanation of the pandemic.

How can academia, businesses, and government collaborate to manage pandemics effectively?

Academia, Business, and government can collaborate to manage pandemics effectively by sharing research and expanding findings.

Comment on "How data become useful information in Pandemics.

Data becomes useful information in pandemics because it gives new variables and ideas of findings and how it’s affected or affects others.The information is used to find potential cures, treatments and other forms of findings that can help distinguish the cause and effect of a pandemic.The information can be paired to create new ideas and how it was created and how it can be ended if possible to limit the spread of such sickness.The information can be used to determine the amount of infection, casualties ,survivor’s to help better understand it maybe and age range or demographic that is more prone to have a worse reaction to the sickness.

Mask mandates and social distancing proved to be effective for the current pandemic but was not enough to eliminate the virus due to the inability to enforce these mandates. In Korea, enforced restrictions for vaccinations as well as a QR code which was required to enter most stores proved its effectiveness in halting the spread of the virus. A mandatory two week stay in a hotel as well as frequent vaccinations were required for visitors outside of Korea. These restrictions and safety policies enforced by the Korean government are great examples on how to handle a pandemic. Data analytics has been proven useful in determining the center points of where a virus spreads. Data can be used to track “traffic” within a population which can allow a state to determine required restrictions and mask mandates in these locations. The role of data analytics is simply information. Focusing on a state/country as a whole is not as effective as eliminating danger spots individually. As shown in the example of South Korea, data analytics has shown to be proven effective in tracking down covid cases.

- I think in order for us to be able to prevent future pandemics we have to take our health more seriously. If you are going out in public I think we all need to be more considerate than how we were used to being. Like if you are going to be going out in a big group in public and you aren't even feeling good in the slightest you should probably revaluate the situation and think is it really worth the chance of getting everyone around you sick. We all should probably just become more observant overall about how are feeling and be more considerate towards others.
- Yes I do think data analytics can prevent future pandemics.
-I think the role of data analytics is something we can use to learn from our past mistakes. Like we can use all the data we have from covid-19 to prevent future pandemics because we know the signs and the steps we should take in situations like this.
- Data can be used like I said earlier to be something we can use to learn from our previous mistakes. Like it can give us details on how much time we have when it comes to pandemics and we can see how fast these pandemics grow and then we can use that toward our advantage so this situation will hopefully never happen again or at least for a long time.

Data can be useful information in pandemics in a lot of ways. It can give you information to help you improve on your situation. Data can be used to minimize the risk of spreading the virus more. As well, it helps you understand what you are going through and help you fix whatever you are doing. Data can help you find more permanent solutions by focusing on the infections and how you can help the people with possible vaccines and cures. Having data can help you also establish other ideas. More importantly, the public health data can help allocate the resources for better protection of public health and focus on more risk-filled areas. Data can help focus on areas that are higher risk and identify the issue and figure a solution with the higher risks, such as making masks mandatory, requiring social distancing, and requiring testing entering public areas. These data can be used to track the virus on a global basis continuously and to create innovation in the medical field.

What can we do to prevent future pandemics? Any idea? Any suggestion?

A few ways we can prevent future global pandemics; first off control the borders and ban the trade of species that cause a public health risk. Also, we can increase the education on how to deal with animals, sanitation, and transmitted disease.

How data or data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics?

With data or data analytics you can effectively create a future plan to help prevent future global pandemics. With data, we can determine what caused the sickness and who has the illness and who they have passed it on to. Also, you can determine how someone got the illness. And with data, will help healthcare providers work more efficiently and know what they should be doing.

What is the role of data analytics in future pandemics?

The role of data analytics in the future will help healthcare providers know how many beds are being used in the hospital and help be more organized and efficient in their job field.

How data become useful information in Pandemics: China case
Data is useful in different ways in worldwide pandemics. Such as creating an effective vaccine, data helps them determine what works and what does not. Data helps them organize a game plan for vaccines. Also, another way data is useful is it keeps track of how many people are sick and how it was spread all throughout the world. Also, data helps find the cause of the pandemic. Also, the information that we learn from the data helps us determine how many people have died, survived, and have gotten the illness.

# data[].attributes.body
There are multiple things we can do to prevent future pandemics. One thing we can do is prevent future pandemics is a longer nationwide shutdown. When the country was shut down, we saw a decrease in numbers. The problem is when we opened back up, we did not have enough restrictions. So, keeping a longer shut down will let the spread decrease even more.  Another thing we can do is only allow the mandatory business to open in person.  Data and analytics could also be used by using previous pandemic data and use that to create predictions for the current one. The role of data in future pandemics is to give us an example and set a precedent for patterns and help us predict what may or may not happen. Data could be helpful to prevent pandemics in some cases, but the reality is that every sickness is different and spreads in different ways. So, in some ways it’s helpful and in other ways, it’s not.

# data[].attributes.body
In order to prevent future pandemics, we should take advantage of the use of masks and other face coverings at all times. For example, although we have the vaccine and the majority of the population is getting said vaccine, we still advise the population to keep face coverings on, although they may not be required. This would prevent the spread of the delta variant that is now going around. We could require the use of thermometers and masks when checking into hotels or in public housing. This way hotel managers can either allow or reject the housing of the guest. This would also allow the environment to stay cleaner even after the intense cleaning of the rooms and building.

Data can be used to prevent future pandemics by allowing us to measure the number of patients in hospitals or deaths caused by disease. For example, when we see an increase in the number of cases of the flu that is not during flu season, we researched more into what may be the cause of it. We might do more research based on the data analytics for cases and come up with a better vaccine and find the leading cause to the increase of cases. This way we can better prepare for the worst-case scenario, which would another pandemic. Data from COVID-19 could potentially prevent future pandemics because it has allowed us to be able to quickly adapt to health issues.

The role of data analytics in future pandemics is to help us read into the future in a sense. We analyze data in order to predict the cycle of pandemics so that we can start to prevent them. If not completely prevent them then know what to do when the illness is about to start.

# data[].attributes.body
What can we do to prevent future pandemics? Any idea? Any suggestion?

In my opinion, the most important thing that can help prevent a pandemic is communication. Diseases and viruses that become pandemics tend to be those that spread very fast, so the only way to stop them is to spread information faster. The problem with communication in our modern world is trust. There are those who trust no news sources and those who trust everything they hear blindly, and both can cause issues. We, as humans, need to be more human to each other if we want to prevent future pandemics. We have to spread information with credible source material and be willing to listen to those whose opinions vary from our own. I feel that is the only way we can effectively spread accurate and useful information fast enough to stop a pandemic from happening.

How data or data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics?

Data analytics is an incredibly important and powerful tool for tracking and predicting things. For preventing a pandemic, that is exactly what you'd want to be able to do: track the movement of the virus and extrapolate where it may end up. Data from past pandemics is also crucial because, chances are, the progression of a future pandemic will be very similar to a past one, giving us even more of an edge in the fight to stop it. Looking at any data collected in the time before a pandemic strikes could allow us to predict when another may occur before anyone even becomes sick.

What is the role of data analytics in future pandemics?

In the future, data analytics could be used to make predictions about almost anything to do with pandemics. You could predict when, where, and how new pandemics may strike just by looking at trends in the past.

# data[].attributes.body
What can we do to prevent future pandemics? Any idea? Any suggestion?

I think that to prevent another type of crisis like the one in which we a currently experiencing, transparency is essential. This is true for individuals who should be honest about if and what kind of symptoms they are experiencing. It is also true, however, of governments and governmental organizations, who need to be open with the information and data that they have on the spread of any diseases and the knowledge that the possess in relation to the nature of them. Additionally, increased access to affordable quality healthcare needs to be made a priority, because many people will not get the treatments that they need because they do not have the means to get it.

How data or data analytics can be used to prevent future pandemics?

Data surrounding the spread of diseases, hospitalizations, population and population density, GDP, vaccination effectiveness, vaccine administration, etc. can can all be crucial in identifying where a disease is localized and to prevent its spread. It can also be very effective in answering questions of how, when, why, and by whom/what is a disease being spread and the best way to target those conditions to mitigate the spread of a virus.

What is the role of data analytics in future pandemics?

Its primary function is prevention, though when pandemics do occur, data analytics is essentially in disease mapping when trying to track how and where the virus is spreading. Additionally, it is used for identifying epicenters, evaluating the effectiveness of prevention policies, and to gather and evaluate information regarding vaccines and treatments, among others. That is to say, data analytics has a very important role in this area of study and in mos others, as well.

In order to prevent more pandemics in the future, we need to issue lockdowns and identify smaller outbreaks before they get larger. This can be done with more international cooperation, but also stronger domestic cooperation.
Data and analytics can be used in future pandemics by gathering data in countries and using it to determine which areas need the most resources (cities, hospitals, etc). This can be an issue if countries refuse to publicize their data, or lie about their statistics. Data analytics is likely not going to prevent small outbreaks (unless there is technology/knowledge I do not know about), but it can help prevent large outbreaks since it can help analyze a population infected with a virus, and help us determine the best course of action from there.

Living through the Covid-19 pandemic, I believe it is safe to say that nobody would ever want to experience another pandemic. Key ways to prevent another one would be to consider all the positive and negative responses that the United States had to Covid. It took the US way too long to shut down borders and to take the virus seriously. When the next possible pandemic arrises the world as a whole needs to listen to the data that has been collected in 2020 and 2021. Masks and vaccines do work and if an individual does not feel comfortable getting vaccinated then they should wear a mask. Although I do not think data analytics can solely prevent a future pandemic, they should be heavily considered. As of today lives are still being lost and families are losing loved ones due to the virus. Furthermore, some people who were infected with Covid-19 are still facing side effects like pneumonia and lost of taste and smell. I would not want the next generations to go through a pandemic let alone the year 2020. There is so much information to help prevent the spread of a virus and I would hope the coming generations use it to their advantage.

I've been watching a lot of movies where people receive powers through genetic modification and it may be more science than fiction but that kind of advancement would be revolutionary. my absolute dream job would be a professional soccer player. I love soccer with a passion. I watch or play it almost every day. I honestly need to practice with more seriousness

The Covid-19 was a deadly pandemic, especially because it's still going on.  However once it had started, it was already inevitable to avoid, the countries could've been closed quicker but regardless somehow the virus would still spread eventually, probably just not as dangerous as it did.
For future pandemics, we can go through all the phases of Covid-19 we went through but this time quicker, this would mean, going through quarantine immediately and closing borders for the needed time. A virus is hard to contain but one people work to not get it and play safe we'll be good.
The data analysis is to show us analytically/statistically what severe danger we experience in this case. Like the deaths of covid, a great number of over millions worldwide that shouldn't be forgotten. This knowledge can be used to measure the severity of a pandemic as well as far as those in contact and those dying. The role of data analysis will help the health industry be organized and efficient.

1. There are many factors that can determine how we can prevent future pandemics. The government can first place orders for all states to shut down to keep all residents in their home states. The government has the most control over the overall population and they should do everything in their power to save the most people’s lives. Whatever kind of germs are going around and making people sick should limit what residents are able to do (COVID and masks).
2. Databases can show how many pandemics we’ve prevented and how much medicine can be produced to help prevent illness. Once we figure that out, we can then determine the steps that need to be taken.
3. When data is correctly recorded, we can see how much these cases from the pandemic is going on and that will determine if the precautions are working or not.

I think there are a couple ways we can take to prevent future pandemic but it mostly just depends on the people and government globally corporation. We should promote a more sanitize environment and keep mask as strongly encouraged within compact indoor places. When an illness is first suspect to be extremely contagious, the government should make staying indoor mandatory for everyone and make sure to bring us all enough foods to last us through quarantine. We should have people coming to regularly check on us. I think a big part of why COVID spread so rapidly in the first place is because we refused to take this procedure.
Data analytic is another good way to prevent future pandemic. With data analytic, we can track who and where is having this certain illness and we can follow the trend to see how much it is spreading in a short period of time. This is where we will use this data and act quick within those areas to prevent it spreading to anywhere further outside of that area.
With the advancing of technology each and everyday, data analysis will only get more and more advance as well. In the future, data analysis might be the key to preventing any pandemic and probably could work close to eliminating them all together.

To prevent future pandemics I think instead of making people feel like they have to take certain precautions and demanding that they do, it should be more of a strong suggestion. Most people are less inclined to do things if they are told it is mandatory. There will always be a reason to rebel. people should know the dangers of not protecting themselves while strongly suggesting to them the precautions they need to take. Data analytics can be used to track almost anything. In this case, tracking data on the number of people who are taking vaccines or getting tested. The role data analytics play in coming pandemics is vital. They would would help track the spread of a virus to keep people safe. Pandemics are inevitable, but using data that was tracked in past pandemics could be of use to limit spread in future pandemics.

How data become useful information in Pandemics.
Data became useful information in pandemics especially Covid-19 because it recorded many different statistics for people to look at and what is effective and non effective against it.There is many variations and information about the pandemic to help further science or research studies to better develop a cure or treatment or help limit the spread of the virus such as the vaccine.
