COVID19r

This repo is focused on reformatting the data provided by Johns Hopkins CSSE. Currently the data is filled as "wide" (meaning every new day gets a new column) where many users have expressed interest of wanting this data to be "long" or row based. I have written an R script which takes the time series data for Deaths, Confirmed Cases, and Recovered cases and converts the formatting to long form. In addition, I have fomatted the Date columns and added a *_Daily column for each of the three categories.

Origional template (Deaths only):

Province/ State Country/ Region Lat Long 1/22/20 1/23/20 ... 3/18/20
British Columbia Canada 49.2827 -123.1207 0 0 ... 4

New Version (Deaths, Confirmed, and Recovered):

ProvState Country Lat Long Date Deaths_Total Deaths_Daily Confirmed_Total Confirmed_Daily Recovered_Total Recovered_Daily
British Columbia Canada 49.2827 -123.1207 2020-03-16 4 3 103 30 4 0
British Columbia Canada 49.2827 -123.1207 2020-03-17 4 0 103 0 4 0
British Columbia Canada 49.2827 -123.1207 2020-03-18 7 3 186 83 4 0
