Note

As of Wednesday, May 1, 2024, the US COVID-19 Forecast Hub no longer accepted new submissions. Information provided on forecast submissions are kept for historical record.

As of November 2024, the US CDC opened a new COVID-19 Forecast Hub repository.

This is the data repository for the COVID-19 Forecast Hub, which is the data source for the official CDC COVID-19 Forecasting page.

If you are a modeling team interested in submitting to the Hub, please visit our technical README with detailed submission instructions.

If you are interested in using the forecast data in a research project, you may clone this repo or use our covidHubUtils R package to access the data through an API. Participating teams provide their forecasts in a quantile-based format. Please also follow the data license and citation guidelines below.

If you are a developer interested in the infrastructure here, we encourage you to check out the Hub documentation wiki.

Citing the Forecast Hub
