EPICC: Epidemiological Cost Calculator

EPICC estimates what an outbreak costs, and what the public health response to it costs. It runs entirely in your browser: pick a model, adjust its parameters and scenarios, and read or export the report.

Open the app

The app is also deployed on Streamlit Community Cloud at https://epiworldpythonapp.streamlit.app/.

In this documentation

  • Models - every bundled model: what it estimates, its parameters with their sources, its scenarios and equations. Generated from the model files, so it always matches the app.
  • Sharing links - how the address bar records a calculation, and how to edit a link by hand.
  • Branding and themes - configuring the app's logo, fonts and colors.
  • Development - running EPICC locally, the checks, and building the static app and this site.
  • Versioning and releases - how versions and release notes work.
  • User stories - who EPICC is for and what is implemented.

EPICC is developed by ForeSITE at the University of Utah. The source is on GitHub; see CITATION.cff to cite it.
