Introduction to CovCan

It is important to understand the impact COVID-19 has had on Canada as a whole. We can get the historical and current COVID-19 infection and death counts for Canadian regions with the Apify Covid Canada API. This API gets the data from the Government of Canada Coronavirus disease (COVID-19): Outbreak update page.

The CovCan package makes getting this information simple, and allows users to:

• Visualize the current and historical COVID-19 data in table format

• Visualize the current and historical COVID-19 data in charts, using the ggplot package

• Calculate and visualize the daily new infection and death counts

CovCan Functions

Generate the historical COVID-19 data with the Get_data() function

Get_data() allows users to generate a data frame that consists of the historical COVID-19 data, for all regions of Canada. These regions are:

• Alberta

• British Columbia

• Canada (as a whole)

• Manitoba

• New Brunswick

• Newfoundland and Labrador

• Northwest Territories

• Nova Scotia

• Nunavut

• Ontario

• Prince Edward Island

• Quebec

• Repatriated travellers (travellers returned home)

• Saskatchewan

• Yukon

This data frame consists of the following columns. 'region' denoting the region of Canada. 'infectedCount' denoting the running total/number of people infected with COVID-19. 'deceasedCount' denoting the running total/number of people deceased from COVID-19, and 'date' denoting the date these recordings were made. This function takes no arguments, the user can simply call it to generate the data frame and then manipulate in a way of their choosing.

Generate the current day COVID-19 data with the Getdata_syncing() function

Getdata_syncing() allows users to generate a data frame that consists of the current day COVID-19 data, for all regions of Canada, much like the Get_data() function. These regions are:

• Alberta

• British Columbia

• Canada (as a whole)

• Manitoba

• New Brunswick

• Newfoundland and Labrador

• Northwest Territories

• Nova Scotia

• Nunavut

• Ontario

• Prince Edward Island

• Quebec

• Repatriated travellers (travellers returned home)

• Saskatchewan

• Yukon

This data frame consists of the following columns. 'region' denoting the region of Canada. 'infectedCount' denoting the running total/number of people infected with COVID-19. 'deceasedCount' denoting the running total/number of people deceased from COVID-19. This function takes no arguments, the user can simply call it to generate the data frame and then manipulate in a way of their choosing.

calculates the daily new cases and death counts from the pre-existing requesting data from the covid dataset

Calculate the daily new infected counts and death counts using daily_count() function

The daily_count() function allows users to use the data generated above in Get_data() function, and returns a data frame exactly like the Get_data() function , but with additional columns. These columns are as follows. 'Daily_new_cases' denotes the amount of new COVID-19 cases recorded since the previous day. 'Daily_deaths' denotes the amount of new COVID-19 deaths recorded since the previous day. 'seven_day_average' denotes _

Produce a time series plot for infected or deceased between selected dates for selected regions of Canada using time_series_plot()

Users can produce a gg plot time series line graph for selected dates and regions of the historical COVID-19 data using the time_series_plot() function. This function uses the data frame produced by the Get_data() function. The first argument is the data you would like to see represented in the graph, being the deceased count or infected count. The second argument is the plot start date, written in yyyy-mm-dd form. The third argument is the plot end date, written in yyyy-mm-dd form. The fourth and subsequent arguments refer to the regions for which you would like to see the time series plot. These can be any of the regions produced by the Get_data() function. One region is required, and users can input up to 16 regions.

We can generate the time series plot for the infected count in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario between June 17th 2020 and January 1st 2021 using the following:

We can generate the time series plot for the deceased count in British Columbia and all of Canada (as a whole) between January 20th 2021 and February 1st 2021 using the following:

time_series_plot('deceased count', '2021-01-20','2021-02-01', 'British Columbia', 'Canada')

options(warn=-1)
time_series_plot('deceased count', '2021-01-20','2021-02-01', 'British Columbia', 'Canada')

We can generate the time series plot for the deceased count in Saskatchewan between August 1st 2020 and August 4th 2020 using the following:

time_series_plot('deceased', '2020-08-01','2020-08-04', 'Saskatchewan')

options(warn=-1)
time_series_plot('deceased', '2020-08-01','2020-08-04', 'Saskatchewan')

Produce a bar chart for infected or deceased (or both) for a selected date for selected regions of Canada using current_data_barchart()

Users can produce a bar chart for a selected date and multiple regions of the historical COVID-19 data using the current_data_barchart() function. This function uses the data frame produced by the Getdata_syncing() function. The first argument is the data you would like to see represented in the graph, being the deceased count, infected count or both. The second argument is date for which you would like to see the data, written in yyyy-mm-dd form. The third and subsequent arguments refer to the regions for which you would like to see the time series plot. These can be any of the regions produced by the Get_data() function. One region is required, and users can input up to 16 regions.

Users can produce a bar chart for a selected date and multiple regions of the amount of new COVID-19 infections and deaths using the day_covid_changes() function. This function uses the data frame produced by the daily_count() function. The first argument is date for which you would like to see the new COVID-19 data, written in yyyy-mm-dd form. The second and subsequent arguments refer to the regions for which you would like to see the new COVID-19 data bar chart. These can be any of the regions produced by the Get_data() function. One region is required, and users can input up to 16 regions.

Produce multiple bar charts to view the difference between the amount of new people infected and deceased from COVID-19 for two dates using covid_changes_between_days()

Users can produce mutliple bar charts to view the amount of new people infected and deceased from COVID-19 between 2 days, using the covid_changes_between_days() function. This function uses the data frame produced by the daily_count() function. The first argument is first date for which you would like to see the new COVID-19 data, written in yyyy-mm-dd form. The second argument is other date for which you would like to see the new data, written in yyyy-mm-dd form. The third and subsequent arguments refer to the regions for which you would like to see the new COVID-19 data bar charts. These can be any of the regions produced by the Get_data() function.
