In covidregionaldata: Subnational Data for COVID-19 Epidemiology

Description

Attributes and methods for COVID-19 data used for the 2019 Novel Coronavirus Visual Dashboard operated by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CSSE). Supported by ESRI Living Atlas Team and the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab (JHU APL)

Details

This dataset support both national and subnational data sources with national level data returned by default. Subnational data is supported for a subset of countries which can be found after cleaning using the available_regions() method, see the examples for more details. These data sets are sourced, cleaned, standardised by the JHU team so please see the source repository for further details. Note that unlike many other data sets this means methods applied to this source are not being applied to raw surveillance data but instead to already cleaned data. If using for analysis checking the JHU source for further details is advisable.
