Risk identification strategies for health pandemics and epidemics on college campuses: A comprehensive analysis of heat maps and behavioral observations
Survey heat maps paired with direct observation can help identify specific locations where safe and at-risk behaviors are most likely to occur. By identifying special patterns of risk, this comprehensive approach offers actionable information to guide interventions, policy enforcement, and resource allocation during health epidemics.
