Case Study: The effectiveness of face masks in preventing the spread of COVID-19
This is a prototype and case study of an ‘interactive meta-analysis’. The main aim is to showcase how an interactive meta-study could look like and thereby explore its potential to be used as a tool to improve evidence-based decision making. More on the concept of an interactive meta-study here.
Like a normal Meta Study , this page aims to combine results from multiple studies on the same topic (in this case mask wearing to prevent the spread of COVID-19) to create one "overall" estimate. However, contrary to a traditional meta study you can choose what studies are included and what criteria they have to meet. Hover over the visualisation to get addtional explanations.
