  • Created a data analysis and visualization for Covid-19 infection rates and death percentages up to the date of 7/17/2021.
  • Data was gathered from "Our World in Data" link: https://ourworldindata.org/covid-deaths
  • Used SQL for analyzing data regarding infection rate and death percentages based on continent, and country. Table were created using Excel. Excel tables were then imported into Tableau for visualization.

Overview

Purpose of project was to analyze most recent data on COVID. Tables were prepared using SQL and visualized with Tableau

Used SQL Queries to first analyze the global numbers of people infected and death percentage from COVID-19.

As of 7/17/2021 over 4 million people died of COVID-19 out of the over 189 million people reported as infected. The death percentage is 2.15%, which means that on a global scale, for every 100 people infected with COVID-19, 2 people die.

Looking at a deeper level; by continents, it is revealed that Europe currently has the highest death toll with over 1 million dead, with other continents close behind. South America is over one million, and North America at over 900,000. Asia’s numbers are perhaps a bit misleading as the sample data had no reported cases in China from the start of the outbreak.

Looking another level lower; by country, I used a Tableau map to visualize the severity of population(s) infected. The darker red areas shows countries with a higher infected population, lighter areas show countries having lower infected population.

Lastly, I created a forecast to see where infection rates may be, 6 months into the future. Looking at the most infected countries, United States is forecasted to have a 15.14% infected populace by March of 2022 and the United Kingdom at 10.55%

Putting everything in one view.

Improvements

Would like to understand why, "Our World in Data," is missing data from China, new information results may have alter results.
