Because testing is so very crucial to understanding the spread of the pandemic and responding appropriately, we have focused our efforts on building a global dataset on COVID-19 testing.
News, stories, photos, videos and more.
Because the number of tests is often volatile from day to day, we show the figures as a seven-day rolling average.
If you see any inaccuracies in the underlying data, or for specific feedback on the analysis or another aspect of the project.
For instance, if 1,000 people died in Iceland, out of a population of about 340,000, that would have a far bigger impact than the same number dying in the United States, with its population of 331 million.
The safest way to achieve this is with a vaccine.
