The main challenge of this work is in balancing the urgent need locally for prediction tools which are up to date (ie, not relying on the national trends to inform capacity planning) versus more exhaustive and robust methods for model comparison. The latter of which uses existing models and more time-consuming (but more robust) data-fitting methods.26 27 However, we believe that release of this paper and sharing of model code will facilitate multidisciplinary collaboration and rapid review and support future model comparison and uncertainty analyses.27
