The code receives data from the Humanitarian Data Exchange and can be used to plot data regarding the coronavirus spread for a specific country. Current metrics include: death rate, amount infected, and amount dead from the virus. The data can be plotted and used to determine predictions regarding the spread of the virus. Data is updated daily and can be used to interactively model the spread of the virus.
Data could be used to compare the spread of multiple countries. Currently, the code is set up to visualize the spread in the United States however this can be changed to any country through a simple change of a single line of code.
