To support the ongoing public health emergency response efforts, national science and technology advisors from a dozen countries formed a Public Health Emergency COVID-19 Initiative, calling on publishers to voluntarily agree to make their COVID-19 and coronavirus-related publications and the available data supporting them immediately accessible in PubMed Central (PMC) and other appropriate public repositories.
To date, publishers have responded to the call and are working with NLM to make their coronavirus-related articles discoverable and accessible through PMC and facilitate text mining and secondary analysis through machine-readable formats and licenses.
Those interested may contact the PMC Public Health Emergency Initiative coordinating team.
