About this dataset

The COVID-19 Global Time Series Case and Death Data is a comprehensive collection of global COVID-19 case and death information recorded over time. This dataset includes data from various sources such as JHU CSSE COVID-19 Data and The New York Times.

The dataset consists of several columns providing detailed information on different aspects of the COVID-19 situation. The COUNTRY_SHORT_NAME column represents the short name of the country where the data is recorded, while the Data_Source column indicates the source from which the data was obtained.

Other important columns include Cases, which denotes the number of COVID-19 cases reported, and Difference, which indicates the difference in case numbers compared to the previous day. Additionally, there are columns such as CONTINENT_NAME, DATA_SOURCE_NAME, COUNTRY_ALPHA_3_CODE, COUNTRY_ALPHA_2_CODE that provide additional details about countries and continents.

Furthermore, this dataset also includes information on deaths related to COVID-19. The column PEOPLE_DEATH_NEW_COUNT shows the number of new deaths reported on a specific date.

To provide more context to the data, certain columns offer demographic details about locations. For instance, Population_Count provides population counts for different areas. Moreover,**FIPS** code is available for provincial/state regions for identification purposes.

It is important to note that this dataset covers both confirmed cases (Case_Type: confirmed) as well as probable cases (Case_Type: probable). These classifications help differentiate between various types of COVID-19 infections.

Overall, this dataset offers a comprehensive picture of global COVID-19 situations by providing accurate and up-to-date information on cases, deaths, demographic details like population count or FIPS code), source references (such as JHU CSSE or NY Times), geographical information (country names coded with ALPHA codes) , etcetera making it useful for researchers studying patterns and trends associated with this pandemic

How to use the dataset

• Understanding the Dataset Structure:

  • The dataset is available in two files: COVID-19 Activity.csv and COVID-19 Cases.csv.
  • Both files contain different columns that provide information about the COVID-19 cases and deaths.
  • Some important columns to look out for are: a. PEOPLE_POSITIVE_CASES_COUNT: The total number of confirmed positive COVID-19 cases. b. COUNTY_NAME: The name of the county where the data is recorded. c. PROVINCE_STATE_NAME: The name of the province or state where the data is recorded. d. REPORT_DATE: The date when the data was reported. e. CONTINENT_NAME: The name of the continent where the data is recorded. f. DATA_SOURCE_NAME: The name of the data source. g. PEOPLE_DEATH_NEW_COUNT: The number of new deaths reported on a specific date. h.COUNTRY_ALPHA_3_CODE :The three-letter alpha code represents country f.Lat,Long :latitude and longitude coordinates represent location i.Country_Region or COUNTRY_SHORT_NAME:The country or region where cases were reported.

• Choosing Relevant Columns: It's important to determine which columns are relevant to your analysis or research question before proceeding with further analysis.

• Exploring Data Patterns: Use various statistical techniques like summarizing statistics, creating visualizations (e.g., bar charts, line graphs), etc., to explore patterns in different variables over time or across regions/countries.

• Filtering Data: You can filter your dataset based on specific criteria using column(s) such as COUNTRY_SHORT_NAME, CONTINENT_NAME, or PROVINCE_STATE_NAME to focus on specific countries, continents, or regions of interest.

• Combining Data: You can combine data from different sources (e.g., COVID-19 cases and deaths) to perform advanced analysis or create insightful visualizations.

• Analyzing Trends: Use the dataset to analyze and identify trends in COVID-19 cases and deaths over time. You can examine factors such as population count, testing count, hospitalization count, etc., to gain deeper insights into the impact of the virus.

• Comparing Countries/Regions: Compare COVID-19

This mapping tool enables you to see how COVID-19 deaths in your area may relate to factors in the local population, which research has shown are associated with COVID-19 mortality. It maps COVID-19 deaths rates for small areas of London (known as MSOAs) and enables you to compare these to a number of other factors including the Index of Multiple Deprivation, the age and ethnicity of the local population, extent of pre-existing health conditions in the local population, and occupational data. Research has shown that the mortality risk from COVID-19 is higher for people of older age groups, for men, for people with pre-existing health conditions, and for people from BAME backgrounds. London boroughs had some of the highest mortality rates from COVID-19 based on data to April 17th 2020, based on data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Analysis from the ONS has also shown how mortality is also related to socio-economic issues such as occupations classified ‘at risk’ and area deprivation. There is much about COVID-19-related mortality that is still not fully understood, including the intersection between the different factors e.g. relationship between BAME groups and occupation. On their own, none of these individual factors correlate strongly with deaths for these small areas. This is most likely because the most relevant factors will vary from area to area. In some cases it may relate to the age of the population, in others it may relate to the prevalence of underlying health conditions, area deprivation or the proportion of the population working in ‘at risk occupations’, and in some cases a combination of these or none of them.

Updates

• Notice of data discontinuation: Since the start of the pandemic, AP has reported case and death counts from data provided by Johns Hopkins University. Johns Hopkins University has announced that they will stop their daily data collection efforts after March 10. As Johns Hopkins stops providing data, the AP will also stop collecting daily numbers for COVID cases and deaths. The HHS and CDC now collect and visualize key metrics for the pandemic. AP advises using those resources when reporting on the pandemic going forward.

  • CDC Weekly case and death counts (national and state level)
  • CDC County level cases and deaths
  • HHS New hospital admissions
  • CDC NowCast COVID variant proportions (national and regional level)

• April 9, 2020

  • The population estimate data for New York County, NY has been updated to include all five New York City counties (Kings County, Queens County, Bronx County, Richmond County and New York County). This has been done to match the Johns Hopkins COVID-19 data, which aggregates counts for the five New York City counties to New York County.

• April 20, 2020

  • Johns Hopkins death totals in the US now include confirmed and probable deaths in accordance with CDC guidelines as of April 14. One significant result of this change was an increase of more than 3,700 deaths in the New York City count. This change will likely result in increases for death counts elsewhere as well. The AP does not alter the Johns Hopkins source data, so probable deaths are included in this dataset as well.

• April 29, 2020

  • The AP is now providing timeseries data for counts of COVID-19 cases and deaths. The raw counts are provided here unaltered, along with a population column with Census ACS-5 estimates and calculated daily case and death rates per 100,000 people. Please read the updated caveats section for more information.

• September 1st, 2020

  • Johns Hopkins is now providing counts for the five New York City counties individually.

• February 12, 2021

  • The Ohio Department of Health recently announced that as many as 4,000 COVID-19 deaths may have been underreported through the state’s reporting system, and that the "daily reported death counts will be high for a two to three-day period."
  • Because deaths data will be anomalous for consecutive days, we have chosen to freeze Ohio's rolling average for daily deaths at the last valid measure until Johns Hopkins is able to back-distribute the data. The raw daily death counts, as reported by Johns Hopkins and including the backlogged death data, will still be present in the new_deaths column.

• February 16, 2021

  - Johns Hopkins has reconciled Ohio's historical deaths data with the state.

  Overview

The AP is using data collected by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering as our source for outbreak caseloads and death counts for the United States and globally.

The Hopkins data is available at the county level in the United States. The AP has paired this data with population figures and county rural/urban designations, and has calculated caseload and death rates per 100,000 people. Be aware that caseloads may reflect the availability of tests -- and the ability to turn around test results quickly -- rather than actual disease spread or true infection rates.

This data is from the Hopkins dashboard that is updated regularly throughout the day. Like all organizations dealing with data, Hopkins is constantly refining and cleaning up their feed, so there may be brief moments where data does not appear correctly. At this link, you’ll find the Hopkins daily data reports, and a clean version of their feed.

The AP is updating this dataset hourly at 45 minutes past the hour.

Caveats

• This data represents the number of cases and deaths reported by each state and has been collected by Johns Hopkins from a number of sources cited on their website.
• In some cases, deaths or cases of people who've crossed state lines -- either to receive treatment or because they became sick and couldn't return home while traveling -- are reported in a state they aren't currently in, because of state reporting rules.
• In some states, there are a number of cases not assigned to a specific county -- for those cases, the county name is "unassigned to a single county"
• This data should be credited to Johns Hopkins University's COVID-19 tracking project. The AP is simply making it available here for ease of use for reporters and members.
• Caseloads may reflect the availability of tests -- and the ability to turn around test results quickly -- rather than actual disease spread or true infection rates.
• Population estimates at the county level are drawn from 2014-18 5-year estimates from the American Community Survey.
• The Urban/Rural classification scheme is from the Center for Disease Control and Preventions's National Center for Health Statistics. It puts each county into one of six categories -- from Large Central Metro to Non-Core -- according to population and other characteristics. More details about the classifications can be found here.

Johns Hopkins timeseries data - Johns Hopkins pulls data regularly to update their dashboard. Once a day, around 8pm EDT, Johns Hopkins adds the counts for all areas they cover to the timeseries file. These counts are snapshots of the latest cumulative counts provided by the source on that day. This can lead to inconsistencies if a source updates their historical data for accuracy, either increasing or decreasing the latest cumulative count. - Johns Hopkins periodically edits their historical timeseries data for accuracy. They provide a file documenting all errors in their timeseries files that they have identified and fixed here

Dataset description

Daily official UK Covid data. The data is available per country (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) and for different regions in England. The different regions are split into two different files as part of the data is directly gathered by the NHS (National Health Service). The files that contain the word 'nhsregion' in their name, include data related to hospitals only, such as number of admissions or number of people in respirators. The files containing the word 'region' in their name, include the rest of the data, such as number of cases, number of vaccinated people or number of tests performed per day. The next paragraphs describe the columns for the different file types.

Region files

Files related to regions (word 'region' included in the file name) have the following columns: - "date": date in YYYY-MM-DD format - "area type": type of area covered in the file (region or nation) - "area name": name of area covered in the file (region or nation name) - "daily cases": new cases on a given date - "cum cases": cumulative cases - "new deaths 28days": new deaths within 28 days of a positive test - "cum deaths 28days": cumulative deaths within 28 days of a positive test - "new deaths_60days": new deaths within 60 days of a positive test - "cum deaths 60days": cumulative deaths within 60 days of a positive test - "new_first_episode": new first episodes by date - "cum_first_episode": cumulative first episodes by date - "new_reinfections": new reinfections by specimen data - "cum_reinfections": cumualtive reinfections by specimen data - "new_virus_test": new virus tests by date - "cum_virus_test": cumulative virus tests by date - "new_pcr_test": new PCR tests by date - "cum_pcr_test": cumulative PCR tests by date - "new_lfd_test": new LFD tests by date - "cum_lfd_test": cumulative LFD tests by date - "test_roll_pos_pct": percentage of unique case positivity by date rolling sum - "test_roll_people": unique people tested by date rolling sum - "new first dose": new people vaccinated with a first dose - "cum first dose": cumulative people vaccinated with a first dose - "new second dose": new people vaccinated with a first dose - "cum second dose": cumulative people vaccinated with a first dose - "new third dose": new people vaccinated with a booster or third dose - "cum third dose": cumulative people vaccinated with a booster or third dose

Country files

Files related to countries (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales) have the above columns and also: - "new admissions": new admissions, - "cum admissions": cumulative admissions, - "hospital cases": patients in hospitals, - "ventilator beds": COVID occupied mechanical ventilator beds - "trans_rate_min": minimum transmission rate (R) - "trans_rate_max": maximum transmission rate (R) - "trans_growth_min": transmission rate growth min - "trans_growth_max": transmission rate growth max

NHS Region files

Files related to nhsregion (word 'nhsregion' included in the file name) have the following columns: - "new admissions": new admissions, - "cum admissions": cumulative admissions, - "hospital cases": patients in hospitals, - "ventilator beds": COVID occupied mechanical ventilator beds - "trans_rate_min": minimum transmission rate (R) - "trans_rate_max": maximum transmission rate (R) - "trans_growth_min": transmission rate growth min - "trans_growth_max": transmission rate growth max

As of May 2, 2023, the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) had been confirmed in almost every country in the world. The virus had infected over 687 million people worldwide, and the number of deaths had reached almost 6.87 million. The most severely affected countries include the U.S., India, and Brazil.

COVID-19: background information COVID-19 is a novel coronavirus that had not previously been identified in humans. The first case was detected in the Hubei province of China at the end of December 2019. The virus is highly transmissible and coughing and sneezing are the most common forms of transmission, which is similar to the outbreak of the SARS coronavirus that began in 2002 and was thought to have spread via cough and sneeze droplets expelled into the air by infected persons.

Naming the coronavirus disease Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that can be transmitted between animals and people, causing illnesses that may range from the common cold to more severe respiratory syndromes. In February 2020, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses and the World Health Organization announced official names for both the virus and the disease it causes: SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, respectively. The name of the disease is derived from the words corona, virus, and disease, while the number 19 represents the year that it emerged.

Context

Covid-19 Data collected from various sources on the internet. This dataset has daily level information on the number of affected cases, deaths, and recovery from the 2019 novel coronavirus. Please note that this is time-series data and so the number of cases on any given day is the cumulative number.
