Hi Ludovic,
Thanks for kicking off this thread. :)
An update on the Wikimedia Foundation's Research team end on this
front (and by no means we're the only players in the field, there are
many researchers on this mailing list who may want to share more about
what they're doing in this space):
* I will send an email to this list sometime during the next week
about what the Research team intends to spend resources on in response
to the COVID-19 situation.
* Diego Saez in our team currently is doing some data analysis in this
space in his volunteer time. If you're interested to learn more,
please reach out to him. You can find him in the #wikimedia-research
channel in IRC under username diego. (He may also just respond to this
email at some point.:)
Best,
Leila
