In order to support scientific research all over the world in fighting the pandemic, the European Commission launched a European COVID-19 Data Platform.
Rapid open sharing of data gives the possibility to researchers to store and share datasets and epidemiological data. In the following days, the extensive scientific data collated will be uploaded to the platform which will include tens of thousands of articles.
This open sharing of data is a vital tool in the European Commission’s response in combatting COVID-19.
