Content

The dataset contains data about the numbers of tests, cases, deaths, serious/critical cases, active cases and recovered cases in each country for every day since April 18, and also contains the population of each country to calculate per-capita penetration of the virus

I've removed data from the "Diamond Princess" and "MS Zaandam" since they are not countries

Additionally, an auxiliray table with information about the fraction of the general population at different age groups for every country is added (taken from Wikipedia). This is specifically relevant since COVID-19 death rate is very much age dependent.

Acknowledgements

The people at "www.worldometers.info" collecting and maintaining this site really are doing very important work "https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries">https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries

Data about age structure for every country comes from wikipedia

Inspiration

It's possible to use this dataset for various purposes and analyses My goal will be to use the additional data about the number of tests performed in each country to estimate the true death and infection rates of COVID-19

Abstract

JHU Coronavirus COVID-19 Global Cases, by country

Documentation

PHS is updating the Coronavirus Global Cases dataset weekly, Monday, Wednesday and Friday from Cloud Marketplace.

This data comes from the data repository for the 2019 Novel Coronavirus Visual Dashboard operated by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CSSE). This database was created in response to the Coronavirus public health emergency to track reported cases in real-time. The data include the location and number of confirmed COVID-19 cases, deaths, and recoveries for all affected countries, aggregated at the appropriate province or state. It was developed to enable researchers, public health authorities and the general public to track the outbreak as it unfolds. Additional information is available in the blog post.

**U.S. county-level characteristics relevant to COVID-19 **

Chin, Kahn, Krieger, Buckee, Balsari and Kiang (forthcoming) show that counties differ significantly in biological, demographic and socioeconomic factors that are associated with COVID-19 vulnerability. A range of publicly available county-specific data identifying these key factors, guided by international experiences and consideration of epidemiological parameters of importance, have been combined by the authors and are available for use:
