Introduction

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The first case was identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. It has since spread worldwide, leading to an ongoing pandemic that spread globally in 2020.

This is a polymedia perceptualization study of data, reported daily, of global deaths that have been attributed to COVID-19.

Note: 'Region' is used here as a generic term to mean 'State', 'Province', 'Territory'. etc. In this study, for countries without separate regions, the Region Name is equivalent to the Country Name.

The data is... Some more guff about the methods etc

Regions with NO deaths due to Covid-19 reported

Of the 347 regions tracked in this study, the following 16 are reported as having NO deaths due to Covid-19:

 Antarctica Channel Islands [United Kingdom] Falkland Islands (Malvinas) [United Kingdom]
  Grand Princess [Canada] Jiangsu [China] Ningxia [China]
  Niue [New Zealand] Pitcairn Islands [United Kingdom] Qinghai [China]
  Repatriated Travellers [Canada] Saint Helena & Ascension & Tristan da Cunha [United Kingdom] Summer Olympics 2020
  Tibet [China] Tuvalu Vatican
  Winter Olympics 2022  

Regions reporting deaths due to Covid-19

Because of the wildly varying ways in which this virus spread globally, and the methods exployed to attempt to control the spread within Regions has also varied, Regions have been grouped in various ways. The principle grouping is by color-coding their daily chart according to the maximum number of deaths in any one day, as follows:

ColorMax. Daily Death rate
1 to 20
21 to 40
41 to 80
81 to 160
161 to 320
321 to 640
641 to 1280
1281 to 2560
2561 to 5120
5121 & above

a region's maximum daily death rates.

Estimating excess mortality due to the COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic analysis of COVID-19-related mortality, 2020–21
Data for the Excess mortalitity study (above).
This dataset contains estimates of excess mortality from the COVID-19 pandemic for global populations during the period of January 1, 2020 – December 31, 2021. Excess mortality is defined as the net difference between the number of deaths during the pandemic (measured by observed or estimated all-cause mortality) and the number of deaths that would be expected based on past trends in all-cause mortality. The dataset also includes reported COVID-19 deaths (or deaths attributable to the virus), the reported COVID-19 mortality rate and the ratio between excess mortality rate and reported COVID-19 mortality rate rates for the same time period. The ratio of excess mortality rate to reported COVID-19 mortality is a measurement of undercounting of the true mortality impact of the pandemic. Methods and limitations for the model for estimating excess mortality can be found in detail in the publication.

Suggestions for inclusion in this list are welcome!

The suppression of information and the propogation of mis-information about this disease seems prevalent, including by corporate media, big-tech, and government agencies in various countries. Obvious examples include the efficacy of treatments using anti-virals and immune-system boosters.
