COVID19: Spot the Curve
The web app is offline for the moment (since Heroku dropped the free tier)
An interactive and up-to-date web app for visualizing the "Curve" of each country has come online (Made with Plolty and Dash; Host with Heroku).
- https://spot-the-curve-coronavirus.herokuapp.com/ (It takes a few seconds to load the first time.)
This is a visualization and quick analysis project about Coronavirus COVID-19. I used the confirmed cases data to visualize and investigate the current "Curve" through basic data science approach. This repo focuses on only the ETL (Data cleaning) and visualization.

Acknowledge
Please keep in mind that the source data are still undergoing rapid developing. I will keep updating the notebook as much as I could. I am a data science practitioner and have little knowledge in Epidemiology. This is an attempt to apply analysis skill to translate the data into understandable information (Report and EDA). If I made any inaccurate information or you have any thoughts on the article, please let me know! Thanks!
