Here are a few interesting COVID-19 data resources that you may not already be aware of.
COVID-19 testing around the world. Nearly every country publishes the number of residents who’ve tested positive for COVID-19. Far fewer post data on the total number of people tested (or tests performed). But as more countries start doing that, the team at Our World In Data has begun compiling a regularly-updated dataset on COVID-19 testing, along with key context, a detailed methodology, and interactive charts.
Aggregated smartphone movements. A team of academics has begun publishing a series of “exposure indices” based on smartphone “pings” collected by a location-analytics company. One set of indices describes the proportion of smartphones that, on a given day in a given US state or county, were observed at least once in another given state or county during the previous 14 days. Another tries to quantify how often smartphones are observed in the same “commercial venues” as other devices. “We are making these indices publicly available to all researchers in the context of the spread of COVID-19,” the researchers write.
