Covidtrends Save

What is this?

This is an interactive graph / animation that charts the trajectory of global COVID-19 cases.

The graph plots the number of new confirmed cases in the past week, versus the total number of confirmed cases.

When plotted in this way, exponential growth is displayed as a straight line.

Notice that most countries follow a similar straight line path, indicating that the growth rate is similar across countries. We're all in this together.

Tips: Press Space (or the play button) to Play/Pause. Press +/- keys (or the slider) to see daily changes. Hover over the graph for more info. Drag cursor to zoom into graph, double-click to zoom back out. Use dropdown menus to switch between Confirmed Cases ↔ Deaths, between regions, or between a logarithmic ↔ linear scale. And don't forget to wash your hands!
