Gas stations are open air (high circulation) with only a small number of people present at a time. Wash/sanitize your hands after using the pump/buttons and there's not much reason to think it's dangerous.

Unfortunately garbage-in -> garbage-out. That chart shows US at 233 confirmed cases. According to NYT, over 10x that number are self-quarantined in NYC alone [1]. Now it's technically true that those cases aren't medically 100% factually confirmed, because NYC has only performed 35 tests total so far. But it gives a very inaccurate picture of reality. Garbage in, garbage out. 1. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/05/nyr…

No, people are instructed to self-quarantine merely for being exposed to an infected person. The large majority of those people are not expected to eventually test positive.

Burn two weeks of PTO when you may not even be sick. I wonder what the compliance rate is?

The data is wrong for at least five or six cases near me, the county seems to be missing or just wrong.

Why present a splashy tool like this if it just has bad data? This is irresponsible.

Yes, the non-mobile version has a great layout and much more density of information on a single page (unsurprisingly).

Does anyone know what the sources are for the data shown here?

This reddit live thread post includes lots of links to various dashboards and sources:

https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/fcolqr/livethrea...

I personally also look at worldometer dashboard (as it usually gives source link for every count increase) from there and I find Hopkins dashboard to be lagging behind, on some countries for several days.

For France, you can find a map on the related Wikipedia page: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89pid%C3%A9mie_de_maladie_...

It's based on the national health agency figures, publied on their website: https://www.santepubliquefrance.fr/

Unfortunately, those figures are aggregated by region, which covers a relatively large geographic area. I'm not sure whether more precise information is available somewhere else.

Yeah, self-quarantining went great in New Hampshire:

The sources are listed in the bottom center section of the dashboard.

Deaths / Deaths + Recoveries gives a 5.7% death rate.

Obviously there are mild cases that are never diagnosed, but it seems if you get sick enough for a confirmed diagnosis, your risk is higher than generally reported.
