I am wondering if the fitness watch industry can't offer other correlateable data such as changes in resting heart rate, blood pressure, and in some cases O2 saturation (I owned one for a while that did pO2, but only when removed from band and deliberately held against a fingerpad).
I've been trying to "guess" what kind of normalization they might (or not) be doing for the sqew in who (can afford to?/is inclined to?) buys and uses these devices. For example, there is a newly reported spike in cases (and deaths) where my biases have me assuming there is limited adoption of these types of devices. In fact, many of the rural counties I am familiar with in NM/AZ/UT/CO seem very unlikely to have *any* adoption. I think this moment in history is an important time for those of us who have a disciplined (this leaves me somewhat out) approaches to data to help with the more subtle challenges of data assimilation/fusion. Has anyone found links to the supporting county-by-county data? - Steve
