PREDICT Emerging Pandemic Threats Project - Coronavirus Extension

Description

The PREDICT Consortium strengthened global preparedness for emerging threats, in particular to detect viruses that may have the potential to spillover from wild animal hosts to people. As part of USAID’s Emerging Pandemic Threats program, PREDICT was implemented from October 2009 through September 2020 by the PREDICT Consortium, as a multi-institutional cross-disciplinary team with numerous global, implementing and government partners in 30 countries (see https://ohi.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/programs-projects/predict-project/authorship for a list of contributors). This project pioneered a One Health approach to emerging infectious virus surveillance and risk communication at high-risk human-wildlife interfaces. This data asset and related datasets contain the test results of the PREDICT Coronavirus Extension Project, implemented from March 2020 through September 2020 to perform additional coronavirus PCR testing on archived animal specimens collected from 2009 to 2019.

21 This dataset contains the test results of the PREDICT Coronavirus Extension Project, implemented from March 2020 through September 2020 to perform additional coronavirus PCR testing on archived animal specimens. Each record describes the PCR tests conducted and the test results. Multiple tests were conducted for each sample sampled. The tested specimens were collected from 2009 to 2014. https://data.usaid.gov/d/9k59-wxqv
21 This dataset contains the test results of the PREDICT Coronavirus Extension Project, implemented from March 2020 through September 2020 to perform additional coronavirus PCR testing on archived animal specimens. Each record describes the PCR tests conducted and the test results. Multiple tests were conducted for each individual sampled. The archived specimens tested were collected from 2014 to 2019, and originated from the PREDICT project and the archives of partners/collaborators. Additional information about some of these samples may be found in other PREDICT datasets within USAID’s Data Development Library; see Data Asset “PREDICT Emerging Pandemic Threats Project” for more information. Tests results represent current findings of the PREDICT Coronavirus Extension Project, however, additional work to further characterize and confirm some results is ongoing. https://data.usaid.gov/d/grw8-8ss6
