Various efforts for early detection and prompt isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic are pivotal to breaking transmission chains and containing outbreaks. In this talk, I will briefly discuss our four projects that utilize data of a large-scale for early detection of 1) hotspots and regional outbreaks using mobility data from cellphone devices, 2) early signs of infections using wearable devices, 3) positive test outcomes using historical electronic medical records, and 4) deteriorations of hospitalized patients using rich medical data.  Then, I will elaborate on one of the projects and its potential applicability for policy determination.
