United States COVID-19 model passes Codecheck

The software behind a major Imperial study warning of a potential US coronavirus resurgence has received a Codecheck endorsement. The key findings in the 'Report 23' from Imperial College were reproducible. Dr Stephen Eglen University of Cambridge The independent review of the Imperial COVID-19 Response Team's code for Report 23 was led by Dr Stephen Eglen, Reader in Computational Neuroscience in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge. The analysis confirms the code's reproducibility and quality. The report's code can be viewed on GitHub, alongside the Codecheck certification. The review grants the code a Codecheck.org.uk "certificate of reproducible computation": the gold standard in independent execution of computations underlying research articles. In late May, Report 23 found that at least 24 US states had a reproduction number above 1 .
