General drawbacks in Deep Learning for COVID-19 Time Series Forecasting

In the early stages of the COVID-19 breakdown, following the success of machine learning (ML) techniques, many researchers turned their efforts to predict the evolution of the global infection. In addition to classical statistical and machine learning trends, deep learning (DL) techniques are perfor...
