Plots IHME's COVID-19 deaths projections for different locations and dates vs actuals, to see how well they did.
Usage: python draw_proj_vs_time.py (-s) [location]
-s : save an animated gif instead of running interactively
Note: if the location name has a space, enclose the name in quotes.
Example: python draw_proj_vs_time.py "New York"
Requirements:
- linux-like terminal environment (works on my Mac)
- python3 with numpy and matplotlib
- imagemagick
Example output gif:
