1./ I& #39;m aware of lots of highly skilled people who would like to do something to help solve the problem of Coronavirus. However I& #39;m not aware of any large-scale effort to coordinate people like this so that they can easily find important problems to work on. This seems strange.
2./ I& #39;m a Silicon Valley Product Manager (PM). One primary job of a PM is to take a big problem that seems too gnarly to solve, and break it up into lots of simple easily solved problems that people can pick up and run with. Does Coronavirus have a PM?
3./ If I was Product Manager for Coronavirus, I& #39;d have a set of short, periodically updated, tracker docs, highlighting what we currently knew, what had been accomplished recently, and what tasks most urgently needed someone to do them? Does this exist anywhere?
4./ I& #39;m sure there are Coronavirus PMs inside particular institutions, visible only to people inside those groups, but this problem is bigger than any individual group, or discipline, or country. Is there an effort to coordinate everyone together, including "outsiders"?
5./ Ideally there would be several such coordination efforts, making use of each others data/resources/etc, slicing things in different ways, and having different blind-spots.
But it seems strange that I& #39;m not aware of "one".

6./ Given that I& #39;m unaware of any coordinated effort to deal with Coronavirus, is this because:
A.) It exists, but it isn& #39;t visible enough for me to have discovered it. If so, why?
B.) It doesn& #39;t exist, and wouldn& #39;t help. If so, why?
C.) It doesn& #39;t exist, and should. If so, why?
