#Coronavirus: The world sees a new disease which might become a global pandemic. It depends on how we act now.
But how should we act? Maybe #Datascience can help. But we data scientists have not enough data.
All I found is data about the spread per country/region (see my links in the group); I have not found cases, not found details. Let’s unite and make this an effort where we can help the world against a big threat!
- Who knows other data sources? Please post them!
- Who can extend the data given? Day-of-week, regional weather, …
- Have you worked on the data? Please post your discoveries, so that others can build on what you found! (Eamonn from the group has installed a GitHub Org now)
- Who has access to government and can ask them to make data available? I am sure there is more data, and if cases are anonymized, public interest should allow case-data to be provided.
Yes, there will be scientists in China and elsewhere already working on it. Still: more brains, better chances. And maybe it is just _your_ contribution that saves the world?

PS: Some people have added links to additional data meanwhile, thank you 🙂
