I found this one on the Coronavirus in China and how it has spread in the last couple of weeks.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-51235105 

- The choropleth maps show  the spread from February 4-24, 2019 i like this map and visualisation because it also includes BBC Research in conjunction with the China National Health Commission. this means, it's possible the BBC is also monitoring and documenting  reported cases as the days go by. Thereby not solely relying on the authorities. This is explained in the 'Finding Data for Your Stories' video (Building your own from paper)

- The chats also show comparisons between coronavirus and other disease outbreaks.

A very nice visualisation that helps the reader better understand the spread of the virus.

This article is very interesting. The charts definitely emphasize the severity of the virus without confusing the reader.
