Ask HN: What is the best Covid-19 dashboard?

31 points| r0f1 | 6 years ago | reply

I found some online, but many of them lack some important numbers? Do you know any dashboards that 1) are regulary updated, 2) show the numbers over time, 3) show the rate per 100.000 inhabitants, 4) show the number of people tested?

I like https://covid19info.live the best so far.

Unfortunately it doesn't show per 100K or # tested (which I would love to find, but haven't seen anywhere). The former should be quite easy to do, the latter appears to not be as easy to get good data for.

Also: made by one hacker!

This has been my go to as well. Having the log scale is invaluable, as you can get a daily check on if the R value is changing yet (when it drops below a linear fit). I was excited when China was able to kick it. Looking forward to other countries doing the same but looks like we’ll have a few weeks of suffering first.

No graphs but maps:

For Germany I recommend:

crowd sourced from local data (faster than official, links to sources): http://www.risklayer-explorer.com/event/100/detail

New official from RKI, you can switch between levels of detail in the top left: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/478220a4c454480e823...

For the Netherlands: https://www.rivm.nl/coronavirus-kaart-van-nederland-per-geme...

For the World (finer than just countries, with links to sources): http://www.risklayer-explorer.com/event/6/detail

http://covid-19.seektable.com/ - it lacks the rate per 100k, but data source is trusted (JHU) and refreshed daily.

I like being able to see new daily cases in line (not cumulative) chart. I couldn't figure out how to choose which countries are displayed. Numerically large ones make the shapes of newly growing ones hard to see.

Edit: that was easy--comma separated country names in the 'Filter:' box

I don't know how it fares with others but I was told about https://outbreak.cc/ which has lots of charts (and some headlines).

You can also use https://outbreak.cc/canada.html, etc for some countries.

The stat I'm most interested in is daily new cases with fine granularity and for regions. I can't think of a clearer indicator of how well we're dealing with containing it.

Seconded: the colours and styling are a little tacky, but the UX is great and it’s easy to get to the graphs to see rates of growth. It is lacking total deaths graphs though

I prefer more of a news feed, the purely numeric view misses a lot of context in terms of what is going on and many countries numbers are clearly disconnected from realty or total fiction. https://coronadaily.com
