As of June 7, 2022, there were 2,523,915 active coronavirus COVID-19 cases and a total of 3,090 deaths registered in Taiwan. Despite the island's proximity to the mainland China, Taiwan had managed to contain the virus before the outbreak of the Delta variant of COVID-19. The success was due to an effective disease control system developed from the experience in the SARS epidemic. The highly contagious Omicron variant had brought a spike in new infections in Taiwan since March 2022.

Taiwan recorded 4189929 Coronavirus Cases since the epidemic began, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, Taiwan reported 7917 Coronavirus Deaths. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for Taiwan Coronavirus Cases.

In past 24 hours, Taiwan, Asia had N/A new cases, N/A deaths and N/A recoveries.

This dataset encompasses information on 579 confirmed COVID-19 cases in Taiwan, spanning from January 21 to November 9, 2020. The dataset includes various features such as travel history, age, gender, onset of symptoms, confirmed date, symptoms, critically ill date, recovered date, death date, and details on contact types between cases.In addition to individual case data, supplementary daily summary information is provided, sourced from the Taiwan CDC and covering the period from January 21, 2020, to May 23, 2022. This supplementary dataset furnishes population-level insights into the progression of the COVID-19 pandemic in Taiwan.Data Fields:Travel HistoryAgeGenderOnset of SymptomsConfirmed DateSymptomsCritically Ill DateRecovered DateDeath DateContact Types Between CasesTemporal Coverage:Individual Case Data: January 21, 2020, to November 9, 2020Daily Summary Data: January 21, 2020, to May 23, 2022Source:Taiwan Centers for Disease Control press release (CDC press release)United Daily News (COVID-19 Visualization)Taiwan CDC Open Data Portal, Regents of the National Center for High-performance Computing (COVID-19 Dashboard)Taiwan Centers for Disease Control open data portal (CDC open data portal)Taiwan Centers for Disease Control press conference (CDC press conference)

Statistical information on deaths of confirmed cases of Severe special infectious pneumonia(COVID-19) from 2020, sub-statistical tables stratified by region, age group, and gender. This data set is updated once a day according to the fixed schedule of the system. At present, there are more cases of severe special contagious pneumonia imported from abroad than those diagnosed at the airport or centralized quarantine center, and they are immediately isolated and treated, so the county and city information is not indicated.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is believed to have originated in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, in December 2019. Infection with this highly dangerous human-infecting coronavirus via inhalation of respiratory droplets from SARS-CoV-2 carriers results in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which features clinical symptoms such as fever, dry cough, shortness of breath, and life-threatening pneumonia. Several COVID-19 waves arose in Taiwan from January 2020 to March 2021, with the largest outbreak ever having a high case fatality rate (CFR) (5.95%) between May and June 2021. In this study, we identified five 20I (alpha, V1)/B.1.1.7/GR SARS-CoV-2 (KMUH-3 to 7) lineage viruses from COVID-19 patients in this largest COVID-19 outbreak. Sequence placement analysis using the existing SARS-CoV-2 phylogenetic tree revealed that KMUH-3 originated from Japan and that KMUH-4 to KMUH-7 possibly originated via local transmission. Spike mutations M1237I and D614G were identified in KMUH-4 to KMUH-7 as well as in 43 other alpha/B.1.1.7 sequences of 48 alpha/B.1.1.7 sequences deposited in GISAID derived from clinical samples collected in Taiwan between 20 April and July. However, M1237I mutation was not observed in the other 12 alpha/B.1.1.7 sequences collected between 26 December 2020, and 12 April 2021. We conclude that the largest COVID-19 outbreak in Taiwan between May and June 2021 was initially caused by the alpha/B.1.1.7 variant harboring spike D614G + M1237I mutations, which was introduced to Taiwan by China Airlines cargo crew members. To our knowledge, this is the first documented COVID-19 outbreak caused by alpha/B.1.1.7 variant harboring spike M1237I mutation thus far. The largest COVID-19 outbreak in Taiwan resulted in 13,795 cases and 820 deaths, with a high CFR, at 5.95%, accounting for 80.90% of all cases and 96.47% of all deaths during the first 2 years. The high CFR caused by SARS-CoV-2 alpha variants in Taiwan can be attributable to comorbidities and low herd immunity. We also suggest that timely SARS-CoV-2 isolation and/or sequencing are of importance in real-time epidemiological investigations and in epidemic prevention. The impact of G614G + M1237I mutations in the spike gene on the SARS-CoV-2 virus spreading as well as on high CFR remains to be elucidated.

Taiwan MOHW: COVID-2019: Number of Cases: Confirmed: Death: To-Date data was reported at 19,005.000 Person in 16 Apr 2023. This stayed constant from the previous number of 19,005.000 Person for 15 Apr 2023. Taiwan MOHW: COVID-2019: Number of Cases: Confirmed: Death: To-Date data is updated daily, averaging 848.000 Person from Feb 2020 (Median) to 16 Apr 2023, with 1036 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 19,005.000 Person in 16 Apr 2023 and a record low of 1.000 Person in 19 Mar 2020. Taiwan MOHW: COVID-2019: Number of Cases: Confirmed: Death: To-Date data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by Ministry of Health and Welfare. The data is categorized under High Frequency Database’s Disease Outbreaks – Table TW.D001: Ministry of Health and Welfare: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-2019).

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.

Context

From World Health Organization - On 31 December 2019, WHO was alerted to several cases of pneumonia in Wuhan City, Hubei Province of China. The virus did not match any other known virus. This raised concern because when a virus is new, we do not know how it affects people.

So daily level information on the affected people can give some interesting insights when it is made available to the broader data science community.

Johns Hopkins University has made an excellent dashboard using the affected cases data. Data is extracted from the google sheets associated and made available here.

Edited: Now data is available as csv files in the Johns Hopkins Github repository. Please refer to the github repository for the Terms of Use details. Uploading it here for using it in Kaggle kernels and getting insights from the broader DS community.

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 daily level information on the number of affected cases, deaths and recovery from 2019 novel coronavirus. Please note that this is a time series data and so the number of cases on any given day is the cumulative number.

The data is available from 22 Jan, 2020.
