Covid-19 Tracking Data Focused on My Family's Counties
The purpose of this project is to access and summarize Covid -19 information for specific counties of interest to my extended family and friends.
There are numerous online sources of Covid-19 tracking data and projection models. Many of these sources are of high scientific and statistical quality. Most produce a "dashboard" view of the relevant data and summary statistics. Unfortunately, the information-rich dashboard pages can be intimidating to folks who don't spend their waking hours immersed in data analytics or public health risk management.
I have written an Excel application for data analysis in selected US counties. Ask about obtaining a copy.
The links to public health agencies who compile the state-based case and death counts are provided here.
Direct links are provided to Johns Hopkins University dashboards for county Covid-19 statistics. This is a convenient way to view current case, death, and testing rates by US county. Note that the dashboards are not easily navigated on smartphones. Laptops and desktops are recommended.
