Context

New York has presented the most cases compared to all states across the U.S..There have also been critiques regarding how much more unnoticed impact the flu has caused. My dataset allows us to compare whether or not this is true according to the most recent data.

Content

This COVID-19 data is from Kaggle whereas the New York influenza data comes from the U.S. government health data website. I merged the two datasets by county and FIPS code and listed the most recent reports of 2020 COVID-19 cases and deaths alongside the 2019 known influenza cases for comparison.

Acknowledgements

I am thankful to Kaggle and the U.S. government for making the data that made this possible openly available.

Inspiration

This data can be extended to answer the common misconceptions of the scale of the COVID-19 and common flu. My inspiration stems from supporting conclusions with data rather than simply intuition.

I would like my data to help answer how we can make U.S. citizens realize what diseases are most impactful.

Deaths counts for influenza, pneumonia, and COVID-19 reported to NCHS by week ending date, by state and HHS region, and age group.

This dataset represents preliminary estimates of cumulative U.S. COVID-19 disease burden for the 2024-2025 period, including illnesses, outpatient visits, hospitalizations, and deaths. The weekly COVID-19-associated burden estimates are preliminary and based on continuously collected surveillance data from patients hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections. The data come from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)-Associated Hospitalization Surveillance Network (COVID-NET), a surveillance platform that captures data from hospitals that serve about 10% of the U.S. population. Each week CDC estimates a range (i.e., lower estimate and an upper estimate) of COVID-19 -associated burden that have occurred since October 1, 2024.

Note: Data are preliminary and subject to change as more data become available. Rates for recent COVID-19-associated hospital admissions are subject to reporting delays; as new data are received each week, previous rates are updated accordingly.

Data is from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Respiratory Virus Weekly Report.

The report is updated each Friday.

Laboratory surveillance data: California laboratories report SARS-CoV-2 test results to CDPH through electronic laboratory reporting. Los Angeles County SARS-CoV-2 lab data has a 7-day reporting lag. Test positivity is calculated using SARS-CoV-2 lab tests that has a specimen collection date reported during a given week.

Laboratory surveillance for influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and other respiratory viruses (parainfluenza types 1-4, human metapneumovirus, non-SARS-CoV-2 coronaviruses, adenovirus, enterovirus/rhinovirus) involves the use of data from clinical sentinel laboratories (hospital, academic or private) located throughout California. Specimens for testing are collected from patients in healthcare settings and do not reflect all testing for influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and other respiratory viruses in California. These laboratories report the number of laboratory-confirmed influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and other respiratory virus detections and isolations, and the total number of specimens tested by virus type on a weekly basis.

Test positivity for a given week is calculated by dividing the number of positive COVID-19, influenza, RSV, or other respiratory virus results by the total number of specimens tested for that virus. Weekly laboratory surveillance data are defined as Sunday through Saturday.

Hospitalization data: Data on COVID-19 and influenza hospital admissions are from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) Hospitalization dataset. The requirement to report COVID-19 and influenza-associated hospitalizations was effective November 1, 2024. CDPH pulls NHSN data from the CDC on the Wednesday prior to the publication of the report. Results may differ depending on which day data are pulled. Admission rates are calculated using population estimates from the P-3: Complete State and County Projections Dataset provided by the State of California Department of Finance (https://dof.ca.gov/forecasting/demographics/projections/). Reported weekly admission rates for the entire season use the population estimates for the year the season started. For more information on NHSN data including the protocol and data collection information, see the CDC NHSN webpage (https://www.cdc.gov/nhsn/index.html).

CDPH collaborates with Northern California Kaiser Permanente (NCKP) to monitor trends in RSV admissions. The percentage of RSV admissions is calculated by dividing the number of RSV-related admissions by the total number of admissions during the same period. Admissions for pregnancy, labor and delivery, birth, and outpatient procedures are not included in total number of admissions. These admissions serve as a proxy for RSV activity and do not necessarily represent laboratory confirmed hospitalizations for RSV infections; NCKP members are not representative of all Californians.

Weekly hospitalization data are defined as Sunday through Saturday.

Death certificate data: CDPH receives weekly year-to-date dynamic data on deaths occurring in California from the CDPH Center for Health Statistics and Informatics. These data are limited to deaths occurring among California residents and are analyzed to identify influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and COVID-19-coded deaths. These deaths are not necessarily laboratory-confirmed and are an underestimate of all influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and COVID-19-associated deaths in California. Weekly death data are defined as Sunday through Saturday.

Wastewater data: This dataset represents statewide weekly SARS-CoV-2 wastewater summary values. SARS-CoV-2 wastewater concentrations from all sites in California are combined into a single, statewide, unit-less summary value for each week, using a method for data transformation and aggregation developed by the CDC National Wastewater Surveillance System (NWSS). Please see the CDC NWSS data methods page for a description of how these summary values are calculated. Weekly wastewater data are defined as Sunday through Saturday.

Effective September 27, 2023, this dataset will no longer be updated. Similar data are accessible from wonder.cdc.gov. Deaths involving COVID-19, pneumonia, and influenza reported to NCHS by sex, age group, and jurisdiction of occurrence.

Motivation

Why did I create this dataset? This is my first time creating a notebook in Kaggle and I am interested in learning more about COVID-19 and how different countries are affected by it and why. It might be useful to compare different metrics between different countries. And I also wanted to participate in a challenge, and I've decided to join the COVID-19 datasets challenge. While looking through the projects, I noticed https://www.kaggle.com/koryto/countryinfo and it inspired me to start this project.

Method

My approach is to scour the Internet and Kaggle looking for country data that can potentially have an impact on how the COVID-19 pandemic spreads. In the end, I ended up with the following for each country:

• Monthly temperature and precipitation from Worldbank
• Latitude and longitude
• Population, density, gender and age
• Airport traffic from Worldbank
• COVID-19 date of first case and number of cases and deaths as of March 26, 2020
• 2009 H1N1 flu pandemic cases and deaths obtained from Wikipedia
• Property affordability index and Health care index from Numbeo
• Number of hospital beds and ICU beds from Wikipedia
• Flu and pneumonia death rate from Worldlifeexpectancy.com (Age Adjusted Death Rate Estimates: 2017)
• School closures due to COVID-19
• Number of COVID-19 tests done
• Number of COVID-19 genetic strains
• US Social Distancing Policies from COVID19StatePolicy’s SocialDistancing repository on GitHub
• DHL Global Connectedness Index 2018 (People Breadth scores)
• Datasets have been merged by country name whenever possible. I needed to rename some countries by hand, e.g. US to United Sates, etc. but it's possible that I might have missed some. See the output file covid19_merged.csv for the merged result.

See covid19_data - data_sources.csv for data source details.

This dataset represents preliminary weekly hospital respiratory data and metrics aggregated to national and state/territory levels reported to CDC’s National Health Safety Network (NHSN) beginning August 2020. This dataset updates weekly on Wednesdays with preliminary data reported to NHSN for the previous reporting week (Sunday – Saturday).Data for reporting dates through April 30, 2024 represent data reported during a previous mandated reporting period as specified by the HHS Secretary. Data for reporting dates May 1, 2024 – October 31, 2024 represent voluntarily reported data in the absence of a mandate. Data for reporting dates beginning November 1, 2024 represent data reported during a current mandated reporting period. All data and metrics capturing information on respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) were voluntarily reported until November 1, 2024. All data included in this dataset represent aggregated counts, and include metrics capturing information specific to hospital capacity, occupancy, hospitalizations, and new hospital admissions with corresponding metrics indicating reporting coverage for a given reporting week. NHSN monitors national and local trends in healthcare system stress and capacity for all acute care and critical access hospitals in the United States.For more information on the reporting mandate per the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requirements, visit: Updates to the Condition of Participation (CoP) Requirements for Hospitals and Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs) To Report Acute Respiratory Illnesses.For more information regarding NHSN’s collection of these data, including full reporting guidance, visit: NHSN Hospital Respiratory Data.For data that is considered final for a given reporting week (Sunday – Saturday), and reflects that which is used in NHSN HRD dashboards for publication each Friday, visit: https://data.cdc.gov/Public-Health-Surveillance/Weekly-Hospital-Respiratory-Data-HRD-Metrics-by-Ju/ua7e-t2fy/about_data.CDC coordinates weekly forecasts of hospitalization admissions based on this data set.

A. SUMMARY This dataset includes weekly respiratory disease hospital admissions for Influenza, RSV, and COVID-19 into San Francisco hospitals. Columns in the dataset include a count and rate of hospital admissions per 100,000 people. The data are reported by week. B. HOW THE DATASET IS CREATED Hospital admission data is reported to the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH) from the United States Center for Disease Control’s (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) program. San Francisco population estimates are pulled from a view based on the San Francisco Population and Demographic Census dataset. These population estimates are from the 2019-2023 5-year American Community Survey (ACS). C. UPDATE PROCESS The dataset is updated every Friday and includes data from the previous Sunday through Saturday. For example, the update on Friday, October 17th will include data through Saturday, October 11th. Data may change as more current information becomes available. D. HOW TO USE THIS DATASET Weekly data represent a count of confirmed admissions of Influenza, RSV, and COVID-19 patients to San Francisco hospitals by week. The admission rate per 100,000 is calculated by multiplying the count of admissions each week by 100,000 and dividing by the population estimate.

This dataset includes aggregated weekly respiratory virus laboratory data that the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) uses to monitor influenza, COVID-19, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and other respiratory virus activity in Chicago. The data represents respiratory viral PCR tests performed by several hospital laboratories in Chicago as well as two commercial laboratories serving Chicago facilities. Data are voluntarily reported on a weekly basis and do not contain patient demographic or geographic information. The data reported represent both Chicago and non-Chicago residents tested by the reporting facility.

The respiratory viruses included are influenza, RSV, SARS-CoV-2, parainfluenza, rhinovirus/enterovirus, adenovirus, human metapneumovirus, and seasonal coronaviruses. Influenza laboratory data are available from 2010-2011 to present; for all other respiratory viruses data are available from 2019-2020 to present.

All data are provisional and subject to change. Information is updated as additional details are received. At any given time, this dataset reflects data currently known to CDPH. Numbers in this dataset may differ from other public sources.

The Respiratory Virus Hospitalization Surveillance Network (RESP-NET) is a network that conducts, active, population-based surveillance for laboratory confirmed hospitalizations associated with Influenza, COVID-19, and RSV. The RESP-NET platforms have overlapping surveillance areas and use similar methods to collect data. Hospitalization rates show how many people in the surveillance area are hospitalized with influenza, COVID-19, and RSV compared to the total number of people residing in that area.

Data will be updated weekly. Data are preliminary and subject to change as more data become available.

NSSP Emergency Department (ED) Visit Trajectories by State and Sub-State Regions- COVID-19, Flu, RSV, Combined. This dataset provides the percentage of emergency department patient visits for the specified pathogen of all ED patient visits for the specified geographic part of the country that were observed for the given week from data submitted to the National Syndromic Surveillance Program (NSSP). In addition, the trend over time is characterized as increasing, decreasing or no change, with exceptions for when there are no data available, the data are too sparse, or there are not enough data to compute a trend. These data are to provide awareness of how the weekly trend is changing for the given geographic region. 

Note that the reported sub-state trends are from Health Service Areas (HSA) and the data reported from the health care facilities located within the given HSA. Health Service Areas are regions of one or more counties that align to patterns of care seeking. The HSA level data are reported for each county in the HSA.

More information on HSAs is available here.

For the emergency department time series, trajectory classifications reported on for sub-state (HSA) emergency department time series, trajectory classifications are based on approximations of the first derivative (slope) of trends that are smoothed using generalized additive models (GAMs). To determine time intervals in which the slope is sufficiently changing (i.e., rate of change distinguishable from 0), 95% confidence intervals for the slope approximations are calculated and assessed. Weeks with a 95% confidence interval not containing 0 are classified as increasing if the slope estimate is positive and decreasing if the slope estimate is negative. Weeks with a 95% confidence interval containing 0 are classified as stable. In the scenario that an HSA's time series is determined to be too sparse (i.e., many weeks with percentages of 0%), a model is not fit, and the HSA is classified as “sparse”.

Context

The 2009 swine flu pandemic was an influenza pandemic that lasted for about 19 months, from January 2009 to August 2010, and the second of two pandemics involving H1N1 influenza virus.

Content

1. data.csv - contains day by day country wise no. of cases & deaths from 4th April to 6th July 2009

Note

• Although the pandemic went on for more than 2 years the data is only from 24th April 2009 to 6th July 2009.
• Because the countries were no longer required to test and report individual cases from 6th July 2009.
• So that day by day data from 6th July 2009 is not available.

Context

A SARS-like virus outbreak originating in Wuhan, China, is spreading into neighboring Asian countries, and as far afield as Australia, the US a and Europe.

On 31 December 2019, the Chinese authorities reported a case of pneumonia with an unknown cause in Wuhan, Hubei province, to the World Health Organisation (WHO)’s China Office. As more and more cases emerged, totaling 44 by 3 January, the country’s National Health Commission isolated the virus causing fever and flu-like symptoms and identified it as a novel coronavirus, now known to the WHO as 2019-nCoV.

The following dataset shows the numbers of spreading coronavirus across the globe.

Data is from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Respiratory Virus Dashboard.

The respiratory virus dashboard shows statewide and regional, weekly data for the following conditions:

• COVID-19

• Influenza

• Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

This dashboard provides an overview of respiratory virus activity (test positivity, flu typing, emergency department visits) and severity (hospital admissions, deaths, and pediatric deaths). The data update most Fridays but may change in future updates as more information becomes available.

How did Brazil become a global epicenter of the outbreak? After seeming to ease, is the virus making a comeback?

A world leader in infections and deaths.

Latin America became an epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic in May, driven by Brazil’s ballooning caseload. Ten months after its first known case, Brazil has had more than 7.9 million cases and over 200,000 deaths.

In early June, Brazil began averaging about 1,000 deaths per day from Covid-19, joining the United States — and later India — as the countries with the world’s largest death tolls.

This dataset contains information about COVID-19 in Brazil extracted on the date 16/06/2021. It is the most updated dataset available about Covid in Brazil
