Currently, NLM is not updating the Disaster Information Management Research Center (DIMRC) website, and is limiting updates to the Disaster Lit database to COVID-19 related data collection tools found in the DR2.
We are no longer adding links to other new disaster-related information. The content of select resources from Disaster Lit will be digitized and made available through Digital Collections and Bookshelf.

Annotation:An international population cohort to investigate genetic susceptibility to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). This study seeks to recruit new participants from the general population during the COVID-19 pandemic into a large genetic epidemiological cohort. Recruitment (and subsequent saliva sampling and antibody testing) will take place remotely. Coronagenes re-purposes much of the infrastructure and expertise from the VIKING II study. This launched in January 2020 and paused in March 2020 due to the pandemic, with over 4,000 participants registered. In Coronagenes, data will be collected at baseline through an online questionnaire and longitudinally for UK participants through linkage to routine NHS data (and where possible other healthcare system data) in electronic health records (EHR).

It is designed to enable patient self-assessment or clinical led assessment, via post, telephone, online or in-clinic visit for wide dissemination and inclusion using limited resources. It can be combined with sampling and further diagnostics.
