Metaculus is excited to introduce Respiratory Outlook 2023/24, which supports US public health officials through the generation of influenza, COVID-19, and RSV forecasts. This initiative builds on our previous contributions to the public health ecosystem and advances the integration of new data science and hybrid intelligence techniques. 

The program is designed to demonstrate the effectiveness of crowd forecasting in real-time decision-making, highlighting how it can aid public health officials in responding to ongoing epidemiological changes and better anticipating future conditions.
