Based on a comparison of coronavirus deaths in 210 countries relative to their population, Peru had the most losses to COVID-19 up until July 13, 2022. As of the same date, the virus had infected over 557.8 million people worldwide, and the number of deaths had totaled more than 6.3 million. Note, however, that COVID-19 test rates can vary per country. Additionally, big differences show up between countries when combining the number of deaths against confirmed COVID-19 cases. The source seemingly does not differentiate between "the Wuhan strain" (2019-nCOV) of COVID-19, "the Kent mutation" (B.1.1.7) that appeared in the UK in late 2020, the 2021 Delta variant (B.1.617.2) from India or the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) from South Africa.

The difficulties of death figures

This table aims to provide a complete picture on the topic, but it very much relies on data that has become more difficult to compare. As the coronavirus pandemic developed across the world, countries already used different methods to count fatalities, and they sometimes changed them during the course of the pandemic. On April 16, for example, the Chinese city of Wuhan added a 50 percent increase in their death figures to account for community deaths. These deaths occurred outside of hospitals and went unaccounted for so far. The state of New York did something similar two days before, revising their figures with 3,700 new deaths as they started to include “assumed” coronavirus victims. The United Kingdom started counting deaths in care homes and private households on April 29, adjusting their number with about 5,000 new deaths (which were corrected lowered again by the same amount on August 18). This makes an already difficult comparison even more difficult. Belgium, for example, counts suspected coronavirus deaths in their figures, whereas other countries have not done that (yet). This means two things. First, it could have a big impact on both current as well as future figures. On April 16 already, UK health experts stated that if their numbers were corrected for community deaths like in Wuhan, the UK number would change from 205 to “above 300”. This is exactly what happened two weeks later. Second, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly which countries already have “revised” numbers (like Belgium, Wuhan or New York) and which ones do not. One work-around could be to look at (freely accessible) timelines that track the reported daily increase of deaths in certain countries. Several of these are available on our platform, such as for Belgium, Italy and Sweden. A sudden large increase might be an indicator that the domestic sources changed their methodology.

Where are these numbers coming from?

The numbers shown here were collected by Johns Hopkins University, a source that manually checks the data with domestic health authorities. For the majority of countries, this is from national authorities. In some cases, like China, the United States, Canada or Australia, city reports or other various state authorities were consulted. In this statistic, these separately reported numbers were put together. For more information or other freely accessible content, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

As of April 26, 2023, the number of both confirmed and presumptive positive cases of the COVID-19 disease reported in the United States had reached over 104 million with over 1.1 million deaths reported among these cases.

Coronavirus deaths by age in the U.S. Daily new cases of COVID-19 hit record highs in the United States at the beginning of 2022. Underlying health conditions can worsen cases of coronavirus, and case fatality rates among confirmed COVID-19 patients increase with age. The highest number of deaths from COVID-19 have been among those aged 85 years and older, with this age group accounting for over 300 thousand deaths.

Where has this coronavirus come from? Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses transmitted between animals and people that cause illnesses ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases. The novel coronavirus that is currently infecting humans was already circulating among certain animal species. The first human case of this new coronavirus strain was reported in China at the end of December 2019. The coronavirus was named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and its associated disease is known as COVID-19.

As of November 11, 2022, almost 96.8 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 had been reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the United States. The pandemic has impacted all 50 states, with vast numbers of cases recorded in California, Texas, and Florida.

The coronavirus in the U.S. The coronavirus hit the United States in mid-March 2020, and cases started to soar at an alarming rate. The country has performed a high number of COVID-19 tests, which is a necessary step to manage the outbreak, but new coronavirus cases in the U.S. have spiked several times since the pandemic began, most notably at the end of 2022. However, restrictions in many states have been eased as new cases have declined.

The origin of the coronavirus In December 2019, officials in Wuhan, China, were the first to report cases of pneumonia with an unknown cause. A new human coronavirus – SARS-CoV-2 – has since been discovered, and COVID-19 is the infectious disease it causes. All available evidence to date suggests that COVID-19 is a zoonotic disease, which means it can spread from animals to humans. The WHO says transmission is likely to have happened through an animal that is handled by humans. Researchers do not support the theory that the virus was developed in a laboratory.

The New York Times is releasing a series of data files with cumulative counts of coronavirus cases in the United States, at the state and county level, over time. We are compiling this time series data from state and local governments and health departments in an attempt to provide a complete record of the ongoing outbreak.

Since late January, The Times has tracked cases of coronavirus in real time as they were identified after testing. Because of the widespread shortage of testing, however, the data is necessarily limited in the picture it presents of the outbreak.

We have used this data to power our maps and reporting tracking the outbreak, and it is now being made available to the public in response to requests from researchers, scientists and government officials who would like access to the data to better understand the outbreak.

The data begins with the first reported coronavirus case in Washington State on Jan. 21, 2020. We will publish regular updates to the data in this repository.

The first two cases of the new coronavirus (COVID-19) in Italy were recorded between the end of January and the beginning of February 2020. Since then, the number of cases in Italy increased steadily, reaching over 26.9 million as of January 8, 2025. The region mostly hit by the virus in the country was Lombardy, counting almost 4.4 million cases. On January 11, 2022, 220,532 new cases were registered, which represented the biggest daily increase in cases in Italy since the start of the pandemic. The virus originated in Wuhan, a Chinese city populated by millions and located in the province of Hubei. More statistics and facts about the virus in Italy are available here.For a global overview, visit Statista's webpage exclusively dedicated to coronavirus, its development, and its impact.

Around 282 thousand new cases of COVID-19 were reported in the United States during the week ending November 11, 2022. Between January 20, 2020 and November 11, 2022 there had been around 96.8 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 with over one million deaths in the U.S. as reported by the World Health Organization.

How did the coronavirus outbreak start? Pneumonia cases with an unknown cause were first reported in the Hubei province of China at the end of December 2019. Patients described symptoms including a fever and difficulty breathing, and early reports suggested no evidence of human-to-human transmission. We now know that a novel coronavirus named SARS-CoV-2 is causing the disease COVID-19. The virus has been characterized as a pandemic and continues to spread from person to person – there have been around 642 million cases worldwide as of November 17, 2022.

The importance of isolation and quarantine In an effort to contain the early spread of the virus, China tightened travel restrictions and enforced isolation measures in the hardest-hit areas. The World Health Organization endorsed this strategy, and countries around the world implemented similar quarantine measures. Staying at home can limit the spread of the virus, and this applies to individuals who are only showing mild symptoms or none at all. Asymptomatic carriers of the virus – those that are experiencing no symptoms – may transmit the virus to people who are at a higher risk of getting very sick.

India reported almost 45 million cases of the coronavirus (COVID-19) as of October 20, 2023, with more than 44 million recoveries and about 532 thousand fatalities. The number of cases in the country had a decreasing trend in the past months.

Burden on the healthcare system

With the world's second largest population in addition to an even worse second wave of the coronavirus pandemic seems to be crushing an already inadequate healthcare system. Despite vast numbers being vaccinated, a new variant seemed to be affecting younger age groups this time around. The lack of ICU beds, black market sales of oxygen cylinders and drugs needed to treat COVID-19, as well as overworked crematoriums resorting to mass burials added to the woes of the country. Foreign aid was promised from various countries including the United States, France, Germany and the United Kingdom. Additionally, funding from the central government was expected to boost vaccine production.

Situation overview
Even though days in April 2021 saw record-breaking numbers compared to any other country worldwide, a nation-wide lockdown has not been implemented. The largest religious gathering - the Kumbh Mela, sacred to the Hindus, along with election rallies in certain states continue to be held. Some states and union territories including Maharashtra, Delhi, and Karnataka had issued curfews and lockdowns to try to curb the spread of infections.

Context

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the strain of coronavirus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the respiratory illness responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since its first identification in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, this virus has taken the world by storm. Some people prefer to look at the positive side of things and how this pandemic has brought forward several positive changes. However, the collateral damages produced by this pandemic cannot be overlooked. From the Economic impact to Mental Health impacts, this pandemic period will arguably be one of the hardest periods we'll encounter in our lives. That being said, we always have to arm ourselves with hope. With the new advancements in the vaccine studies, let's hope to wake up from this nightmare as soon as possible.

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.” – Desmond Tutu

As for the reason for me building this dataset, it's because I couldn't get my hands on an easily digestible and up-to-date dataset of Covid-19, so, I decided to build my own using Python and web scraping techniques. I will also update this dataset as frequently as possible!

Going through this data, Kagglers can visualize various trends in their own country, or compare several countries. One can also combine this dataset with other news and key points in time (lockdowns, new UK mutation, Holidays, etc.) in order to study the effects of these events on the progression of Covid-19 in a multitude of countries. Implementing time series analysis on this dataset would also be an amazing idea! Getting a deep learning algorithm to learn from this sea of data and try to predict the future turn of events could be quite interesting!

As of June 13, 2023, there have been almost 768 million cases of coronavirus (COVID-19) worldwide. The disease has impacted almost every country and territory in the world, with the United States confirming around 16 percent of all global cases.

COVID-19: An unprecedented crisis Health systems around the world were initially overwhelmed by the number of coronavirus cases, and even the richest and most prepared countries struggled. In the most vulnerable countries, millions of people lacked access to critical life-saving supplies, such as test kits, face masks, and respirators. However, several vaccines have been approved for use, and more than 13 billion vaccine doses had already been administered worldwide as of March 2023.

The coronavirus in the United Kingdom Over 202 thousand people have died from COVID-19 in the UK, which is the highest number in Europe. The tireless work of the National Health Service (NHS) has been applauded, but the country’s response to the crisis has drawn criticism. The UK was slow to start widespread testing, and the launch of a COVID-19 contact tracing app was delayed by months. However, the UK’s rapid vaccine rollout has been a success story, and around 53.7 million people had received at least one vaccine dose as of July 13, 2022.

On June 13, 2023, there were almost 107 thousand new cases of COVID-19 worldwide. The total number of deaths from COVID-19 has reached almost 6.9 million.

Covid-19

The Covid-19 is a contagious coronavirus that hailed from Wuhan, China. This new strain of the virus has strike fear in many countries as cities are quarantined and hospitals are overcrowded. This dataset will help us understand how Covid-19 in Italy.

On March 8, 2020 - Italy’s prime minister announced a sweeping coronavirus quarantine early Sunday, restricting the movements of about a quarter of the country’s population in a bid to limit contagions at the epicenter of Europe’s outbreak.

COVID-19 rate of death, or the known deaths divided by confirmed cases, was over ten percent in Yemen, the only country that has 1,000 or more cases. This according to a calculation that combines coronavirus stats on both deaths and registered cases for 221 different countries. Note that death rates are not the same as the chance of dying from an infection or the number of deaths based on an at-risk population. By April 26, 2022, the virus had infected over 510.2 million people worldwide, and led to a loss of 6.2 million. The source seemingly does not differentiate between "the Wuhan strain" (2019-nCOV) of COVID-19, "the Kent mutation" (B.1.1.7) that appeared in the UK in late 2020, the 2021 Delta variant (B.1.617.2) from India or the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) from South Africa.

Where are these numbers coming from?

The numbers shown here were collected by Johns Hopkins University, a source that manually checks the data with domestic health authorities. For the majority of countries, this is from national authorities. In some cases, like China, the United States, Canada or Australia, city reports or other various state authorities were consulted. In this statistic, these separately reported numbers were put together. Note that Statista aims to also provide domestic source material for a more complete picture, and not to just look at one particular source. Examples are these statistics on the confirmed coronavirus cases in Russia or the COVID-19 cases in Italy, both of which are from domestic sources.

A word on the flaws of numbers like this

People are right to ask whether these numbers are at all representative or not for several reasons. First, countries worldwide decide differently on who gets tested for the virus, meaning that comparing case numbers or death rates could to some extent be misleading. Germany, for example, started testing relatively early once the country’s first case was confirmed in Bavaria in January 2020, whereas Italy tests for the coronavirus postmortem. Second, not all people go to see (or can see, due to testing capacity) a doctor when they have mild symptoms. Countries like Norway and the Netherlands, for example, recommend people with non-severe symptoms to just stay at home. This means not all cases are known all the time, which could significantly alter the death rate as it is presented here. Third and finally, numbers like this change very frequently depending on how the pandemic spreads or the national healthcare capacity. It is therefore recommended to look at other (freely accessible) content that dives more into specifics, such as the coronavirus testing capacity in India or the number of hospital beds in the UK. Only with additional pieces of information can you get the full picture, something that this statistic in its current state simply cannot provide.

Ministry of Health data sources are available at the links below:Cases Totals (spatial)Case DetailsLaboratory Testing InformationRegional Summary DataData Over TimeThe number of laboratory tests performed and positivity rate over time are reported by the date of test result. See “Laboratory Indicators” section for more details.Laboratory confirmed cases are reported based on the client's first positive lab result.As of April 2, 2022, cases include laboratory-diagnosed cases (confirmed and probable) funded under Medical Services Plan.From January 7, 2021 to April 1, 2022, cases included those reported by the health authorities and those with positive laboratory results reported to the BCCDC. The number of cases over time is reported by the result date of the client's first positive lab result where available; otherwise by the date they are reported to public health. Prior to April 2, 2022, total COVID-19 cases included laboratory-diagnosed cases (confirmed and probable) as well as epi-linked cases. Prior to June 4, 2020, the total number of cases included only laboratory-diagnosed cases.As of January 14, 2022, the data source for "Currently Hospitalized" has changed to better reflect hospital capacity. Comparisons to numbers before this date should not be made.As of April 2, 2022, death is defined as an individual who has died from any cause, within 30 days of a first COVID-19 positive lab result date. Prior to April 22, 2022, death information was collected by Regional Health Authorities and defined as any death related to COVID-19. Comparisons between these time periods are not advised.Epidemiologic Indicators"Currently Hospitalized" is the number of people who test positive for COVID-19 through hospital screening practices, regardless of the reason for admission, as recorded in PCMS on the day the dashboard is refreshed. It is reported by the hospital in which the patient is hospitalized, rather than the patient's health authority of residence.Critical care values (intensive care units, high acuity units, and other critical care surge beds) include individuals who test positive for COVID-19 and are in critical care, as recorded in PCMS.The 7-day moving average is an average daily value over the 7 days up to and including the selected date. The 7-day window moved - or changes - with each new day of data. It is used to smooth new daily case and death counts or rates to mitigate the impact of short-term fluctuations and to more clearly identify the most recent trend over time.The following epidemiological indicators are included in the provincial case data file:Date: date of the client's first positive lab result.HA: health authority assigned to the caseSex: the sex of the clientAge_Group: the age group of the clientClassification_Reported: whether the case has been lab-diagnosed or is epidemiologically linked to another caseThe following epidemiological indicators are included in the regional summary data file:Cases_Reported: the number of cases for the health authority (HA) and health service delivery area (HSDA)Cases_Reported_Smoothed: Seven day moving average for reported casesLaboratory IndicatorsTests represent the number of all COVID-19 tests reported to the BCCDC Public Helath Laboratory since testing began mid-January 2020. Only tests for residents of B.C. are included.COVID-19 positivity rate is calculated for each day as the ratio of 7-day rolling average of number of positive specimens to 7-day rolling average of the total number of specimens tested (positive, negative, indeterminate and invalid). A 7-day rolling average applied to all testing data corrects for uneven data release patterns while accurately representing the provincial positivity trends. It avoids misleading daily peaks and valleys due to varying capacities and reporting cadences.Turn-around time is calculated as the daily average time (in hours) between specimen collection and report of a test result. Turn-around time includes the time to ship specimens to the lab; patients who live farther away are expected to have slightly longer average turn around times.The rate of COVID-19 testing per million population is defined as the cumulative number of people tested for COVID-19/B.C. population x 1,000,000. B.C. Please note: the same person may be tested multiple times, thus it is not possible to derive this rate directly from the number of cumulative tests reported on the B.C. COVID-19 Dashboard.Testing context: COVID-19 diagnostic testing and laboratory test guidelines have changed in British Columbia over time. B.C.'s testing strategy has been characterized by four phases: 1) Exposure-based testing (start of pandemic), 2) Targeted testing (March 16, 2020), 3) Expanded testing (April 9, 2020), 4) Symptom-based testing (April 21, 2020), and 5) Symptom-based testing for targeted populations (a-are at risk of more severe disease and/or b-live or work in high-risk settings such as healthcare workers) and Rapid Antigen Tests deployment (January 18, 2022). Due to changes in testing strategies in BC in 2022, focusing on targeted higher risk populations, current case counts are an underestimate of the true number of COVID-19 cases in BC and may not be representative of the situation in the community.
The following laboratory indicators are included in the provincial laboratory data file:New_Tests: the number of new COVID-19 testsTotal_Tests: the total number of COVID-19 testsPositivity: the positivity rate for COVID-19 testsTurn_Around: the turnaround time for COVID-19 testsBC Testing Rate: Total PCR + POC tests per day (excluding POC that were confirmed by PCR within 7 days) / Population using BC Stats PEOPLE2021 population projections for the year 2022 * 100,000.Health Authority AssignmentCases are reported by health authority of residence.As of April 2, 2022, cases are reported based on the address provided at the time of testing; when not available, by location of the provider ordering the lab test.As of April 2, 2022,

Context

Late in December 2019, the World Health Organisation (WHO) China Country Office obtained information about severe pneumonia of an unknown cause, detected in the city of Wuhan in Hubei province, China. This later turned out to be the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) of the coronavirus family. The disease causes respiratory illness characterized by primary symptoms like cough, fever, and in more acute cases, difficulty in breathing. WHO later declared COVID-19 as a Pandemic because of its fast rate of spread across the Globe with over 2.8 Million confirmed cases and over 197,000 deaths as of April 25, 2020. The African continent started confirming its first cases of COVID-19 in late January and early February of 2020 in some of its countries. The disease has since spread across 52 of the 54 African countries with over 29,000 confirmed cases and over 1,300 deaths as of April 25, 2020.

The COVID-19 Africa dataset contains daily level information about the COVID-19 cases in Africa since January 27th, 2020. It is a time-series data and the number of cases on any given day is cumulative. I extracted the data from the World COVID-19 dataset which was uploaded on Kaggle. The R script that I used to prepare this dataset is also available on my Github repository. The original datasets can also be found on the John Hopkins University Github repository. I will be updating the COVID-19 Africa dataset on a daily basis, with every update from John Hopkins University.
