I was eager to do data analysis on the Covid19 Outbreak data but I was frustrated by a lack of data that could easily studied. Most of what I could find was either not up to date (such as the r package coronavirus) or lacked global data (such as the r package nCov2019). This code remedies that situation by making a tidy panel data set in r.
This project downloads the 2019 Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 (2019-nCoV) Data Repository by Johns Hopkins CSSE, converts it into panel data, and makes some basic figures.
