The deadly coronavirus continues to spread across the globe, and you can use an online dashboard to keep up with all reported cases. The Center for Systems Science and Engineering has built a tool pulling in data from the World Health Organization, as well as the centers for disease control in the US, China and Europe. It shows all confirmed, suspected and recovered coronavirus patients, as well as deaths.
Coronavirus, which originated in Wuhan, China, has so far killed more than 16,000 people and infected over 360,000. Cases have been confirmed in North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, South America, Australia and the Pacific, with the illness exhibiting pneumonia-like symptoms. It was first reported to the World Health Organization on Dec. 31, 2019, with Chinese scientists linking the disease to a family of viruses known as coronaviruses that include the deadly SARS and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS).
As of 12:00 p.m. PT on March 23, the dashboard showed 16,113 deaths. There are 81,496 confirmed cases in mainland China, 63,927 in Italy, 41,511 in the US, 33,089 in Spain, 28,865 in Germany, 23,049 in Iran, 16,937 in France, 8,961 in South Korea, 8,547 in Switzerland and 5,911 in the UK. The dashboard shows the virus has spread to 168 countries, with even the smallest areas including Faroe Islands and Vatican City reporting cases. Around 100,000 people have recovered.
