Hey Gaukhar, Thanks for pointing to this story. The use of multiple data visualisations and animations has clarified a very complex issue - the timeline and mapping are kept simple which made them flow and most importantly easy to follow. Great stuff.

A very interesting website is https://worldometers.info/coronavirus 

You can see a graph (absolute and logarithmic), with numbers of patients

The covid-19 outbreak is one of the world's biggest stories. Economist Magazine looked at it from a different angle in the article below. While most publications are, rightly, focussing on the spread of the virus and the consequent fatality rate, this article uses big data to look at how effective different types of government are at dealing with similar emergencies.
