Let's do that.

Can we add the details here

https://hackmd.io/@thejeshgn/BybQFVY7w/edit

As of now it's publicly editable. May be  once we reach some level, I can
make it public comment's only, to keep spam away.

Re: [datameet] Covid-19 death records

[Sarabjeet Matharu]

To capture experiences of patients and their families with COVID, we could
create a simple questionnaire that can be rolled out digitally to those who
would want to participate.

We can create stories that document their experiences which can be
subsequently published online. I'll be happy to put together a basic
questionnaire which we can discuss and deploy.

In case there are members who would be interested in taking this up, please
let me know and we can collaborate on a separate thread (so we dont spam
the whole group).

not only that, regular health service delivery (including antenatal care,

is unclear. if data could be collected on this, it'd really be helpful.

Re: [datameet] Covid-19 death records

[Sarabjeet Matharu]

Hi

I agree with Nikhil on many areas including the outsized impact this virus
has had on our society. I say outsized, because the number of deaths due to
COVID is far lower than the number of deaths due to road accidents in India
(~1290 / day pre pandemic).

There has been a complete breakdown in how daily life has progressed during
this time and the fragility of our social systems, administration has come
out in stark contrast.

Collecting stories of survivors, from families of the deceased and from the
average person documenting the impact of this pandemic on everyday life
might be of significant importance in the future.

Sarabjeet

Re: [datameet] Covid-19 death records

[Nikhil VJ]

Hi,

The hard way, but also the easy way, may be to collect data from people
themselves, with all the obvious disclaimers brought in.
Towards that, setting up a data collection site might be a good prospect.
There, relatives of the deceased who *want* their stories to be shared in
the hopes it may help others, can post and declare what they're sharing it
as open data.

Additionally, I'd also really like to see data collection from Covid-19
survivors. Particularly, what helped in their case, in whatever level of
detail they want to share.

There has been too much dirtying of the waters by official orgs. WHO is,
I'm very sorry, not the most reliable source. The unipolar credibility
worldview that has been adopted by us has been to our collective detriment.
Whether lockdowns worked at all or not is under question because places
that didn't impose strict lockdowns like Sweden, Japan, South Dakota
haven't turned into giant body-piles (and no, I will not accept an A-to-B
numbers comparison - the rationale for lockdowns was that if not, we will
have mass die-offs. So I will evaluate the effectiveness of lockdowns only
on whether the non-lockdown place has bodies piling up or not as originally
claimed. Anything else - doesn't justify forced lockdowns that we knew
going in will kill a lot of people too and irreparably push entire
generations into poverty and leave a lot more people without the resources
to protect themselves from the disease). Hospitals and agencies that have
been given incentives to report as many Covid-19 cases and deaths as
possible, have, predictably and unfortunately, done what were incentivised
to do. And data visualization folks have, I'm sorry again, gone in for
numbers orgy and it's feeling sick now.

There have been cases in other countries of people dying from motor
accidents or gunshot wounds being marked as Covid-19 deaths, of
official govt bodies having to retract and downgrade their own
published figures after scandals erupted. There have been nurses speaking
out about patients being put on wrong treatments that aggravated their
conditions and no relatives being around them to stop it. There have been
medical practitioners with equal or more experise than those on the
authority side, and with actual success track records in treating covid-19
patients, questioning official policies. Instead of addressing the concerns
raised, the tech giants have gone into full-on Church-vs-Galileo mode and
exponentially increased the collective distrust by proactively censoring
anyone daring to diverge from what CNN believes to be true. I would frankly
trust authorities more when they earn my trust than when they dictate it.

If we want to help in even reducing the trust deficit and encourage
alienated people to begin trusting official authorities again, I think
qualitative voluntary data collection from kin of deceased and from
survivors will be important. So that the anecdotes build up confirm the
official line. And if they don't, well, it may help make sure we have
better official sources later on.

Some records are necessary. However in absence of official communication,
where can such data be sourced from.

[datameet] Covid-19 death records

[Thejesh GN]

Dear All,

49k+ people are dead due to COVID19 in India, no one knows who they are. In
a year we will forget their stories and it will be just one single number.
I was wondering if we can collect


Date of death
State
District
Gender
Age
Name (not sure of this, due to privacy. We can discuss)
Reference link

- So that we have enough data to analyse
- They are recorded publicly just like deaths of soldiers in war or attacks


Deaths and births are usually public documents. But i don't see MoHFW
publishing this data. Do you have any idea how to go about?



Regards,
Thej
