Show HN: Coronavirus Spread Animation/Map

The goal of this app is to show Coronavirus spread over time. Through all the sensational headlines, I couldn't really see how the virus was developing over the globe. This should give a better feel for both the infection rate and affected areas.

A side goal is to create a responsible interactive virus map. For that I took some notes from the ArcGIS post the other day about responsible mapping. Mainly using a blue color scheme instead of red tints.

For a more detailed motivation as well as design considerations please see the blog post. Or feel free to ask of course.

I hope this is of use to some of you.

I think each post has like a 3 minute window to get going otherwise it's going to end up in the great dusty internet library. I'm surprised you stumbled upon it now.

Just so I can get an understanding how people find stuff on Hackernews, how did you come across it?
