Analysis of ‘Population by Country - 2020’ provided by Analyst-2 (analyst-2.ai), based on source dataset retrieved from https://www.kaggle.com/tanuprabhu/population-by-country-2020 on 28 January 2022.

Context

I always wanted to access a data set that was related to the world’s population (Country wise). But I could not find a properly documented data set. Rather, I just created one manually.

Content

Now I knew I wanted to create a dataset but I did not know how to do so. So, I started to search for the content (Population of countries) on the internet. Obviously, Wikipedia was my first search. But I don't know why the results were not acceptable. And also there were only I think 190 or more countries. So then I surfed the internet for quite some time until then I stumbled upon a great website. I think you probably have heard about this. The name of the website is Worldometer. This is exactly the website I was looking for. This website had more details than Wikipedia. Also, this website had more rows I mean more countries with their population.

Once I got the data, now my next hard task was to download it. Of course, I could not get the raw form of data. I did not mail them regarding the data. Now I learned a new skill which is very important for a data scientist. I read somewhere that to obtain the data from websites you need to use this technique. Any guesses, keep reading you will come to know in the next paragraph.

You are right its, Web Scraping. Now I learned this so that I could convert the data into a CSV format. Now I will give you the scraper code that I wrote and also I somehow found a way to directly convert the pandas data frame to a CSV(Comma-separated fo format) and store it on my computer. Now just go through my code and you will know what I'm talking about.

Below is the code that I used to scrape the code from the website

Acknowledgements

Now I couldn't have got the data without Worldometer. So special thanks to the website. It is because of them I was able to get the data.

As far as I know, I don't have any questions to ask. You guys can let me know by finding your ways to use the data and let me know via kernel if you find something interesting

Context

The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic is an ongoing global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus first emerged in Wuhan, Hubei, China, in December 2019. On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic. As of 11 March 2020, over 126,000 cases have been confirmed in more than 110 countries and territories, with major outbreaks in mainland China, Italy, South Korea, and Iran. More than 4,600 have died from the disease and 67,000 have recovered.

Content

2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a virus (more specifically, a coronavirus) identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China. Early on, many of the patients in the outbreak in Wuhan, China reportedly had some link to a large seafood and animal market, suggesting animal-to-person spread. However, a growing number of patients reportedly have not had exposure to animal markets, indicating person-to-person spread is occurring. At this time, it’s unclear how easily or sustainably this virus is spreading between people - CDC

This dataset has information on the number of affected cases, deaths and recovery from 2019 novel coronavirus. Please note that this data was scrapped from https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/.This data is solely for education purposes only.

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.

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.

Associated with manuscript titled: Fifty Muslim-majority countries have fewer COVID-19 cases and deaths than the 50 richest non-Muslim countriesThe objective of this research was to determine the difference in the total number of COVID-19 cases and deaths between Muslim-majority and non-Muslim countries, and investigate reasons for the disparities. Methods: The 50 Muslim-majority countries had more than 50.0% Muslims with an average of 87.5%. The non-Muslim country sample consisted of 50 countries with the highest GDP while omitting any Muslim-majority countries listed. The non-Muslim countries’ average percentage of Muslims was 4.7%. Data pulled on September 18, 2020 included the percentage of Muslim population per country by World Population Review15 and GDP per country, population count, and total number of COVID-19 cases and deaths by Worldometers.16 The data set was transferred via an Excel spreadsheet on September 23, 2020 and analyzed. To measure COVID-19’s incidence in the countries, three different Average Treatment Methods (ATE) were used to validate the results.

COVID-19 Dataset for Epidemic Model Development

I combined several data sources to gain an integrated dataset involving country-level COVID-19 confirmed, recovered and fatalities cases which can be used to build some epidemic models such as SIR, SIR with mortality. Adding information regarding population which can be used for calculating incidence rate and prevalence rate. One of my applications based on this dataset is published at https://dylansp.shinyapps.io/COVID19_Visualization_Analysis_Tool/.

Content

My approach is to retrieve cumulative confirmed cases, fatalities and recovered cases since 2020-01-22 onwards from the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CSSE) COVID-19 dataset, merged with country code as well as population of each country. For the purpose of building epidemic models, I calculated information regarding daily new confirmed cases, recovered cases, and fatalities, together with remaining confirmed cases which equal to cumulative confirmed cases - cumulative recovered cases - cumulative fatalities. I haven't yet to find creditable data sources regarding probable cases of various countries yet. I'll add them once I found them.

• Date: The date of the record.
• Country_Region: The name of the country/region. -alpha-3_code: country code for that can be used for map visualization.
• Population: The population of the given country/region.
• Total_Confirmed_Cases: Cumulative confirmed cases.
• Total_Fatalities: Cumulative fatalities.
• Total_Recovered_Cases: Cumulative recovered cases.
• New_Confirmed_Cases: Daily new confirmed cases.
• New_Fatalities: Daily new fatalities.
• New_Recovered_Cases: Daily new recovered cases.
• Remaining_Confirmed_Cases: Remaining infected cases which equal to (cumulative confirmed cases - cumulative recovered cases - cumulative fatalities).

In this dataset we can find information related to the population of all the countries listed in the website Worldometers. The dataset is composed, among others, with information like Country, Total Cases, New Cases or TotalDeaths. The dataset was created with the idea to implement it in any project where this information could help to fight against Covid-19.

As of February 28, 2025, there had been over 132 thousand cases of mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) confirmed. The virus has been recorded in 131 countries and territories, and was re-named as a public health emergency of international concern by the WHO in August 2024.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has developed into a global pandemic, affecting every nation and territory in the world. Machine learning-based approaches are useful when trying to understand the complexity behind the spread of the disease and how to contain its spread effectively. The unsupervised learning method could be useful to evaluate the shortcomings of health facilities in areas of increased infection as well as what strategies are necessary to prevent disease spread within or outside of the country. To contribute toward the well-being of society, this paper focusses on the implementation of machine learning techniques for identifying common prevailing public health care facilities and concerns related to COVID-19 as well as attitudes to infection prevention strategies held by people from different countries concerning the current pandemic situation. Regression tree, random forest, cluster analysis and principal component machine learning techniques are used to analyze the global COVID-19 data of 133 countries obtained from the Worldometer website as of April 17, 2020. The analysis revealed that there are four major clusters among the countries. Eight countries having the highest cumulative infected cases and deaths, forming the first cluster. Seven countries, United States, Spain, Italy, France, Germany, United Kingdom, and Iran, play a vital role in explaining the 60% variation of the total variations by us of the first component characterized by all variables except for the rate variables. The remaining countries explain only 20% of the variation of the total variation by use of the second component characterized by only rate variables. Most strikingly, the analysis found that the variable number of tests by the country did not play a vital role in the prediction of the cumulative number of confirmed cases.
