The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unprecedented focus of the world’s scientific community on one topic. To quantify, we have calculated that 4% of all scientific outputs during the last 5 months have been about COVID-19; this has increased from 0.3% in February, to 1.2% in March, 4.5% in April, 6.5% in May, 8.3% in June and 6.6% in July. We systematically retrieved and critically assessed the first 10 000 PubMed indexed papers on COVID-19.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unprecedented focus of the world’s scientific community on one topic. To quantify, we have calculated that 4% of all scientific outputs during the last 5 months have been about COVID-19; this has increased from 0.3% in February, to 1.2% in March, 4.5% in April, 6.5% in May, 8.3% in June and 6.6% in July. We systematically retrieved and critically assessed the first 10 000 PubMed indexed papers on COVID-19.
