Introduction

This dashboard uses publicly available data from Public Health England (PHE). The data is made available through their python API library:

from uk_covid19 import Cov19API

Two Variables on Timeseries

  • Choose one variable on each axes to explore their relationship
  • For example, take a look at the death rate after vaccinations are administered

Cases by Region

  • See the age distributions for cases broken down by sex and region
  • Select male, female, total cases, or any combination of the three
  • Warning: refreshing this data may take up to a minute
