What is this?The COVID-19 data repository by Johns Hopkins University's Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) — the case data behind their widely used pandemic Visual Dashboard.
Is this a program I can run, or just a dataset?Just a dataset — it holds compiled counts of COVID-19 cases and deaths; there is no application code to install or run. The dashboard that visualizes it lives separately.
How do I actually get the data?Clone or download the repository straight from GitHub. There is nothing to build — you just work with the data files directly.
Is the data still being updated?No — Johns Hopkins stopped collecting and reporting global COVID-19 data on March 10, 2023, and the repository is archived. The README points to WHO for global figures and the CDC for US ones.
Who was actually using this data?Anyone tracking the pandemic — researchers, journalists and the public — via the public JHU dashboard and these files; publications using the data are asked to cite the team's Lancet article.
Can I follow the numbers in a browser instead of downloading files?Yes — the JHU Visual Dashboard this repository feeds runs in the browser, with separate desktop and mobile versions.
Can I reuse the data in my own project or paper?Yes — the data set is licensed CC BY 4.0, so reuse and redistribution are free as long as you give attribution.
Where does the case data come from?It aggregates many sources: WHO, ECDC, DXY.cn, QQ News, US CDC, BNO News, WorldoMeters and others, plus state and county health departments across the US and national health ministries worldwide. The README lists every source ever used since January 21, 2020.
Do I need to cite anything if I use the data in research?Yes — the team asks that any publication using the data cite their Lancet article, 'An interactive web-based dashboard to track COVID-19 in real time'.
Can I embed the dashboard on my own site?Yes — the README includes instructions for embedding the JHU dashboard into your own webpage.
