Interpretation of Forecasts of New Hospitalizations
• This week, two national forecasts predict a likely increase in the number of new hospitalizations per day over the next four weeks, two forecasts predict a likely decline, and three forecasts are either uncertain about the direction of the trend or predict stable numbers. For September 14, the forecasts estimate 2,000 to 10,000 new COVID-19 hospitalizations per day.
• State-level forecasts also show a high degree of variability, which results from multiple factors. Hospitalization forecasts use different sources of data for COVID-19 cases or deaths, with different limitations, and make different assumptions about social distancing.
• Information about participating modeling groups, with model names, intervention assumptions, and methods, is available at: https://github.com/cdcepi/COVID-19-Forecasts/blob/master/COVID-19_Forecast_Model_Descriptions.md
