*Abstract*: In this talk, the speaker will recount the COVID-19
epidemiological surveillance activities that were conducted by a large
group of volunteers in Pune city since March 2020. Starting as an effort to
curate and collate the data that was being collected by the city
administration, it soon transformed to a comprehensive effort to estimate
the state of the epidemic in Pune city and inform the city’s efforts to
contain and manage the epidemic. The speaker will talk about the enabling
factors, results and challenges encountered during the past year, and
briefly reflect upon what could have helped us stay ahead of the (epidemic)
curve.
