So you made an outbreak model and you want to share your findings with the world. Now what?
I had the pleasure of working with dozens of colleagues to develop consensus recommendations for reporting epidemic forecasting and prediction research
Recommended reporting items for epidemic forecasting and prediction research: The EPIFORGE 2020 guidelines
Simon Pollett and co-workers describe EPIFORGE, a guideline for reporting research on epidemic forecasting.

What is the COVID-19 forecast for this winter? @USAToday's @kweintraub interviewed experts including @laurenmeyers @TexasScience who says we need to stay vigilant. via @YahooNews
Will the US face another bad COVID-19 winter? Cases are falling, but the virus isn't done with us, experts say
COVID-19 cases are falling again in the USA. Whether they will rise again depends on how Americans behave and what the unpredictable virus does next.
