I have a proposed change to this excellent article, that I expect I will apply. I go to this article frequently - as I expect thousands of people do - for the latest picture, or rather Table of cases by country. But each time I then have to scroll down a bit to see what I consider this article's main raison-d'etre, the said main table. Also, the table is to the right of the screen, and its width is constrained I guess as a result.
An easy solution is to put said table into its own section. Then, with just one click, one can bring that section to the top of the screen, bingo. Moreover, one can refresh the page, without the table slipping again down the screen.
For me it seems a great change, so I assume many others would also be helped if I do this. Do please shout quickly if you have concerns or a better suggestion.
A further idea is to limit the TOC index to continent level, to get to the goodies with less scrolling. Always happy to discuss things and thoughts. Thanks & stay safe, Trafford09 ( talk) 10:09, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
OK, after 9 hours, no immediate rejection of my above proposals, so I've gone ahead and made both changes.
I hope people approve, as it's now better, IMHO.
However, it'd be nice to align the main table to the left, not right.
Who knows a way to achieve that?

Recently the world map for the outbreak on the page has changed a few times and it went from useful and simple to chaotic and now to irrelevant. At first, it was very simple with red meaning an infected country and blue being a suspected country, that was simple and there was useful information. You could easily spot newly infected countries and able to see which countries were at risk of the virus. It then turned to a tri-color chaotic scheme which I'm glad was changed, but now we're stuck with an irrelevant map that's complicated to understand and useless. The map that we're stuck with is a map that just shows how many confirmed infected cases there are in every country. That's completely irrelevant. See, I don't care how many cases there are in the country, I can just scroll down and see the number of cases in the box below. And it's hard to understand since you have to match the exact shade of red to the key below to see approximately how many people are infected in the country. It's better to apply this map when most or even all the countries are infected since it's hard now to spot newly infected countries without having to look at the box below. Please can we all just turn the map back to its original state? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Opirentis ( talk • contribs) 17:27, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Something needs to be done as the template limits for the page were exceeded on March 1 due to the sheer number of citations. The page either needs to be trimmed down or split. The reflist template shows up as a wikilink now instead of actually showing a list of all the references and it is now impossible to click on references now. Another possibility is to remove or edit Template:2019–20 coronavirus outbreak data/International medical cases. The page is about the outbreak by "country and territory", not by "country and territory" and by "date." I am hoping we can come together to form a consensus as quickly as possible because not having access to the references is un-wikipedia. Bait30 Talk? 04:35, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
A lot of case in China, S.Korea, Japan, but nothing from N.Korea.
Question: is this related to the lack of info? N.Korea government has ever released informations about their situation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.11.3.98 ( talk) 13:41, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
Egypt looks like being somewhat like the Iran case - a country with a limited form of democracy and an authoritarian government where authoritarian rules or the fear of upsetting superiors prevents information from circulating properly. The difference here is that the claim is 20 lab-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases rather than at least 50 COVID-19 deaths in a single city (Qom in Iran a week or so ago). But the transmissions apparently from Egypt to other countries probably indicate much bigger numbers than just 20 lab-confirmed cases.
So it's probably worth splitting off an Egypt article soon - as more info leaks or if WHO decides that Egypt is a priority concern and helps bring test kits and insists that they're used, the lab-confirmed count seems very likely to grow quickly, given the sources we have in the article right now.

Considering the image on the infobox, there is someone constantly putting French Guiana in gray, considering that it doesn't have coronavirus confirmed cases. This is twice wrong:
I insist on the fact that, just like Madeira and the Azores are part of Portugal, the Canary Islands are part of Spain, Alaska and Hawaii are part of the US, France can't be divided and the French regions of Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Reunion and Mayotte should be coloured the same as the rest of the country. Because it's indeed at that scale that confirmed cases in France are counted, both in communications from French official authorities and from UN WHO reports.

An IP-user changed the place of origin from the virus in many individual articles on outbreak by country (f.i. from 'Italy' to 'Wuhan'), and I sense that it is not how the template is supposed to be used.

The point of the map that is all red now was supposed to show what provinces are affected and what are not. Well, since they are all infected, there isn't really a point of it existing.

For the 2020 coronavirus outbreak in the Netherlands infobox I have proposed an additional information for the infobox. Some editors insert Wuhan, China on every 2019–20 coronavirus outbreak by country and territory, and some want to put as an origin the source for the first local cases. For Poland it was Germany, for Netherlands it was Lombardy, Italy and so on. So currently under Origin in Netherlands we have both: Wuhan, China (globally) and Lombardy, Italy (first local cases). This can alleviate unnecessary edit warring between editors for this spot and give readers more clue as to the local transfer of infecion and it's global origin at the same time. Maybe there could be additional parameter in infobox Arrival for outside source. YBSOne ( talk) 11:19, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Raising the issue (as some users express wanting to do before) that I think we should split the semi-autonomous territories from their parent countries in the table (e.g. listing French Guiana, Martinique, etc. separately from France; listing Faroe Islands separately from Denmark, etc.).
I'd argue that it would be much clearer for people to see where the outbreak is actually spreading or not spreading if we're not combining the territories that reside thousands of miles away with their parent country. Thoughts? Paintspot Infez ( talk) 17:31, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
Why don't we just have the territories as subrows of their parent country? Group Macao and Hong Kong with China, Guernsey and Jersey with UK, etc. while still displaying their individual counts plus the total. ( JoelleJay ( talk) 03:38, 12 March 2020 (UTC))
Should the Pandemic by country and territory table be sorted by deaths instead of cases? Given the under-reporting of cases it seems to me that the figures for deaths are likely to be (a) more indicative of the extent of the outbreak, and (b) more indicative of the impact? For the same reasons, should the deaths column come before the cases column? Batternut ( talk) 06:10, 13 March 2020 (UTC)

The article is linking to multiple Web sites visualizing Corona spread data. We were thinking about how to make that same data accessible for visually impaired users as well. We have a voice interface (currently tested for Chrome browsers) running here:

E.g., press any key and ask "How is the situation in Europe?" or "how many cases in New York?" and it summarizes the most recent data via voice output. We're taking data from sources such as CDC or WHO and it's updated daily.

The confirmed deaths map, despite the statement to be as of 22nd March, is several days outdated. Red represents countries with cases but no deaths.

And of countries with deaths (black), Mauritius, Ghana, Paraguay, DR Congo, Lithuania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Colombia, Singapore, Finland, Chile, Israel are all marked in red, and should be black, since all have deaths recorded.

This map seems sort of silly and arbitrary. Does it really help the reader to know which countries have seen a single death from COVID? Doesn't seem particularly helpful especially given that all countries very likely will or have seen someone die. What information is the reader meant to glean from this?

I am a bit concerned about the lack of sourcing of the Entities without confirmed cases section. For the countries and a few of the more populated regions I could find sources relatively easily, but many of the territories listed are quite obscure and sparsely populated. One IAR-ish way to get around is to use Worldometers as a default source, which also lists dependent territories, except it is not clear if the list is exhaustive. Another solution, which I think adheres more closely to Wikipedia policy, is to only allow entries that have reliable sources stating they are COVID-free; in this case we also need to decide how recent the source needs to be or add an "as of" column.

Support! Incidence rate is normally calculated in terms of at-risk population over given period of time. So it's useful to give the context of the at-risk population if we are listing country. It's similar to GDP and GDP per capita. 64.18.152.49 ( talk) 15:11, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

I have a proposed change to this excellent article, that I expect I will apply. I go to this article frequently - as I expect thousands of people do - for the latest picture, or rather Table of cases by country. But each time I then have to scroll down a bit to see what I consider this article's main raison-d'etre, the said main table. Also, the table is to the right of the screen, and its width is constrained I guess as a result.
An easy solution is to put said table into its own section. Then, with just one click, one can bring that section to the top of the screen, bingo. Moreover, one can refresh the page, without the table slipping again down the screen.
For me it seems a great change, so I assume many others would also be helped if I do this. Do please shout quickly if you have concerns or a better suggestion.
A further idea is to limit the TOC index to continent level, to get to the goodies with less scrolling. Always happy to discuss things and thoughts. Thanks & stay safe, Trafford09 ( talk) 10:09, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
OK, after 9 hours, no immediate rejection of my above proposals, so I've gone ahead and made both changes.
I hope people approve, as it's now better, IMHO.
However, it'd be nice to align the main table to the left, not right.
Who knows a way to achieve that?

Recently the world map for the outbreak on the page has changed a few times and it went from useful and simple to chaotic and now to irrelevant. At first, it was very simple with red meaning an infected country and blue being a suspected country, that was simple and there was useful information. You could easily spot newly infected countries and able to see which countries were at risk of the virus. It then turned to a tri-color chaotic scheme which I'm glad was changed, but now we're stuck with an irrelevant map that's complicated to understand and useless. The map that we're stuck with is a map that just shows how many confirmed infected cases there are in every country. That's completely irrelevant. See, I don't care how many cases there are in the country, I can just scroll down and see the number of cases in the box below. And it's hard to understand since you have to match the exact shade of red to the key below to see approximately how many people are infected in the country. It's better to apply this map when most or even all the countries are infected since it's hard now to spot newly infected countries without having to look at the box below. Please can we all just turn the map back to its original state? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Opirentis ( talk • contribs) 17:27, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Something needs to be done as the template limits for the page were exceeded on March 1 due to the sheer number of citations. The page either needs to be trimmed down or split. The reflist template shows up as a wikilink now instead of actually showing a list of all the references and it is now impossible to click on references now. Another possibility is to remove or edit Template:2019–20 coronavirus outbreak data/International medical cases. The page is about the outbreak by "country and territory", not by "country and territory" and by "date." I am hoping we can come together to form a consensus as quickly as possible because not having access to the references is un-wikipedia. Bait30 Talk? 04:35, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
A lot of case in China, S.Korea, Japan, but nothing from N.Korea.

Egypt looks like being somewhat like the Iran case - a country with a limited form of democracy and an authoritarian government where authoritarian rules or the fear of upsetting superiors prevents information from circulating properly. The difference here is that the claim is 20 lab-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 cases rather than at least 50 COVID-19 deaths in a single city (Qom in Iran a week or so ago). But the transmissions apparently from Egypt to other countries probably indicate much bigger numbers than just 20 lab-confirmed cases.
So it's probably worth splitting off an Egypt article soon - as more info leaks or if WHO decides that Egypt is a priority concern and helps bring test kits and insists that they're used, the lab-confirmed count seems very likely to grow quickly, given the sources we have in the article right now.

Considering the image on the infobox, there is someone constantly putting French Guiana in gray, considering that it doesn't have coronavirus confirmed cases. This is twice wrong:
I insist on the fact that, just like Madeira and the Azores are part of Portugal, the Canary Islands are part of Spain, Alaska and Hawaii are part of the US, France can't be divided and the French regions of Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Reunion and Mayotte should be coloured the same as the rest of the country. Because it's indeed at that scale that confirmed cases in France are counted, both in communications from French official authorities and from UN WHO reports.

For the 2020 coronavirus outbreak in the Netherlands infobox I have proposed an additional information for the infobox. Some editors insert Wuhan, China on every 2019–20 coronavirus outbreak by country and territory, and some want to put as an origin the source for the first local cases. For Poland it was Germany, for Netherlands it was Lombardy, Italy and so on. So currently under Origin in Netherlands we have both: Wuhan, China (globally) and Lombardy, Italy (first local cases). This can alleviate unnecessary edit warring between editors for this spot and give readers more clue as to the local transfer of infecion and it's global origin at the same time. Maybe there could be additional parameter in infobox Arrival for outside source. YBSOne ( talk) 11:19, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Raising the issue (as some users express wanting to do before) that I think we should split the semi-autonomous territories from their parent countries in the table (e.g. listing French Guiana, Martinique, etc. separately from France; listing Faroe Islands separately from Denmark, etc.).

Should the Pandemic by country and territory table be sorted by deaths instead of cases?

Hello Wikipedia, I was browsing this article when I noticed that a figure in the data table is incorrect and not up to date, so I am wondering if I may update it. It is the figure for confirmed Irish cases. Currently on the data table it shows 785 cases, however the number has recently changed to 906 cases. Thank you.

Epidemiology of COVID-19 – Currently there is no page for the epidemiology on COVID-19. Having a single page with this information seems to make much more sense than embedding the same images in a lot of places, and crowding up the main
2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. This page isn't about international responses, so this title seems more appropriate.

The confirmed deaths map, despite the statement to be as of 22nd March, is several days outdated. Red represents countries with cases but no deaths. A number of countries with cases have not been added, including Cape Verde, Angola, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Papua New Guinea, Madagascar, Isle of Man, Haiti, East Timor. And of countries with deaths (black), Mauritius, Ghana, Paraguay, DR Congo, Lithuania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Colombia, Singapore, Finland, Chile, Israel are all marked in red, and should be black, since all have deaths recorded. And Russia is in black indicating a death, but it has none. If the map cannot be kept current, what is its purpose? Ptilinopus ( talk) 10:43, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

We have official Iranian statistics sooner than anyone. But we are not allowed to edit. And you include unofficial and fake statistics from Iran. Or, if the statistics are correct, it's too late to edit. Amirho3einx ( talk) 12:17, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Could we get a first confirmed case by country timeline? Seeing the day each country reported their first confirmed case will be informative epidemiologically / politically. There are various timeline templates on other global affairs pages (same sex marriage, capital punishment) that would fit the format well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.88.230.25 ( talk) 23:57, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Number of Iran deaths is incorrect. The actual number is 2077 which is 143 cases more than yesterday statistics which was 1934. 2206 is, in fact, the number of new confirmed cases. Aminabzz ( talk) 13:10, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Why isn’t there a fatality rate column? Can anyone please add?
Here is number 168 in text and 177 in the table. What does mean this difference? Mircea ( talk) 11:41, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
This map seems sort of silly and arbitrary. Does it really help the reader to know which countries have seen a single death from COVID? Doesn't seem particularly helpful especially given that all countries very likely will or have seen someone die. What information is the reader meant to glean from this? NickCT ( talk) 18:32, 28 March 2020 (UTC)
The death count map isn't as helpful as a "per cap" map would be. Anyone mind if I swap the current death count map out with a "per cap" version (i.e. File:COVID-19 Outbreak World Map Total Deaths per Capita.svg)? NickCT ( talk) 18:54, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

I am a bit concerned about the lack of sourcing of the Entities without confirmed cases section. For the countries and a few of the more populated regions I could find sources relatively easily, but many of the territories listed are quite obscure and sparsely populated. One IAR-ish way to get around is to use Worldometers as a default source, which also lists dependent territories, except it is not clear if the list is exhaustive. Another solution, which I think adheres more closely to Wikipedia policy, is to only allow entries that have reliable sources stating they are COVID-free; in this case we also need to decide how recent the source needs to be or add an "as of" column.

Support! Incidence rate is normally calculated in terms of at-risk population over given period of time. So it's useful to give the context of the at-risk population if we are listing country. It's similar to GDP and GDP per capita. 64.18.152.49 ( talk) 15:11, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
