The death toll of the coronavirus that originated in Wuhan, China, has reached at least 81, and the virus has infected more than 2,800 people.
A map produced by researchers at Johns Hopkins University tracks and visualizes reports about the outbreak using data from the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organisation, China's CDC, and other sources with geographic-information-system mapping.
As reports come in, the map keeps track of the total confirmed cases, total deaths, and total recoveries. Each red dot represents an outbreak, with the size corresponding to the relative size of the outbreak. Clicking on one shows the region's information.
