Dataviz No.5 | This stream #graph uses #stats from the @johnshopkinsu #Coronavirus Resource Center. Last updated on 3/20 at 10:14PM. The numbers have obviously changed since then, but it’s still an important tool to be aware of. As the status of the #pandemic alters, our #dataviz graphs will use their numbers as a primary source instead of news outlets. Their team tracks #data of #covıd19 cases across 166 #countries/regions in #realtime. Plus, their research team confirms cases using regional/local/ health departments and #CDC locations/public #health organizations around the 🌎. With the exception of three countries, #JohnsHopkins University has been the first to #report newly infected countries/regions, ahead of the @WHO and news outlets. If you want access to #accurate data regarding #covıd19 cases, check out their site. Hit the #linkinbio for more info.

Dataviz No.4: Here’s what Chinese #billionaire J

Dataviz No.4: Here’s what Chinese #billionaire Jack Ma has been up to lately.👆🏾The founder of the @alibaba.group will deliver resources to all 54 countries in #Africa. As well as 60,000 protective suits & face shields. For #Italy, his deliveries are especially important b/c the European Union initially rejected Italy’s requests for more $$ and medical supplies like test kits or ventilators. In the U.S., the #CDC was sending out faulty test kits to states a month after the first #covid_19 case was reported. Also, states were not allowed to work with private labs. As governments around the 🌎 get it together, Ma’s deliveries will serve as a bridge to reliable testing & containment. It may not be enough, but it’s definitely a helpful start. #Dataviz Sources: Sources: #JackMa Foundation, Alibaba Foundation, Jack Ma @Twitter, @CNN, @aljazeeraenglish, and @reuters.

Dataviz No. 3: This is a 🌎 comparison of early

Dataviz No. 3: This is a 🌎 comparison of early #covid_19 testing. As more verified #stats come in, more @gogetdata #graphs will be posted. The full #dataviz story will be uploaded later Monday afternoon. Please check below👇🏾for sources. Swipe to compare #countries. It’s difficult not to panic, but we all need to realize that there is simply not enough #data to assume infection = automatic death or critical illness. The real danger lies in improper leadership, false info, and not providing #medical resources to support patients. That's why accurate testing is so important. When you have data, you can begin to properly contain/measure and not just guess solutions. Or scare the public for $$$ gain/votes. There is a reason why #China built 2 hospitals in 10 days. More resources were needed to help people RECOVER. People do recover. In other words: let's #calmdown and go with the #science. Be cautious. Stay home. #Washyohands. And get tested when/if it becomes available near you.
