Corona Chart – Building an Information Display with the Pi

Just as a small update, the code is currently broken due to a change in the source data format : ( It will need fixing but hopefully the change is minor.

Also, there's another data set called VAERS, it reports adverse vaccine reactions and deaths. It requires experts to make real use of it, since it is easy to come up with incorrect assumptions based on just looking at a few numbers.

Anyway, for what it's worth, there is some very simple Python code to begin looking at the data, here: https://github.com/shabaz123/vaers-insight

Also this story is maybe relevant!

"We're gonna need a bigger display..."

Spotted this 31.2" colour ePaper display from Eink the other day:

Not exactly low cost however...

Todays chart, 16 April 2020, (as of midnight), click to zoom to make it clearer:

The numbers are also against each line in parenthesis to make them easier to read.

A great project. [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-9abb5a6a-c3ff-4b61-a99c-4b4e2da8db98/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16] A shame it's so useful.

Hi Shabaz,

Very useful and I was able to get it going on my Pi in just minutes. It is also a great example of an application where Python shines. Thanks for posting.

Chart for today...

Looks like Spain is at around 800 new deaths per day. France and US are heading for similar rates within a couple of days. UK was on amongst the worst trajectories with perhaps 200 needless deaths so far, compared to had it been on an average path.

EDIT: By the way, let me know if there's any particular country you'd like to see on the chart - it's easy to add it in.

Very interesting project. I wonder if it can be ported on a Pi with the standard 7 inches. I suppose yes. You god me a great idea for something I have in mind.

Very useful data and project. Thanks for digging in and finding some reliable data.
