Operation Viral News is more than just a COVID-19 news-reporting website. It is first and foremost a research project that uses mathematics as the foundation for its findings. However, we also use math in our observations of others' work to provide information that is as objective and clear as possible.

WEBSITE FEATURES

The project's content has been separated into four different categories on the website. "Report" has a full PDF of the original, 18-page research report. "Briefing" serves as a summarization of that report, while "Deployment" is where one can find more up-to-date news or applications of the research. "Columns" stands apart from these in that they focus on excerpts from news sources that we have found notable.

PRACTICAL ACTIONS

One of the trademarks of COVID-19 has been the confusion surrounding it. From the way the virus functions to how one can keep themselves safe, questions have abounded. Operation Viral News aims to help its audience be more confident in their behavior by providing some new insight on the virus.
