For people embedded in companies: make sure your company can work remotely. Buy more VPN licences, update firewalls to handle the traffic, find meeting / conferencing software, whatever else you need to do to keep people working outside of the office.
For really big tech companies (FAANG), improve data analytics for automated reporting of health data to government agencies (CDC, FDA, etc). Google Flu Trends [1] is a great example of this. Basically google combines common symptom queries with geolocation data to track diseases in near-real time across a region. I first read about this in Datacalysm (Christian Rudder) and it's a fascinating thing.
For individuals: maybe make some cool graphs or ways of analyzing the publicly available COVID-19 data? There's a lot of misinformation going around and helping to curb that with real data will help the whole fear thing. For example [2]: people are saying to donate blood to get tested for COVID-19 "for free" but the test itself is a swab, not a blood pull.
Got into it only recently after having known about it for a long time. Just checked the leaderboards and discovered to some amusement that there's crypto based on it: https://curecoin.net
How can we help?
i.e. I'm hearing about things like the ways for hospitals to report numbers to the CDC having just been set up.
This seems likely something any local technical person could help tackle.
Is there a place to go to find out how to help in any way possible?
