## Introduction

This is a collection of resources for tracking the COVID-19 outbreak in the Kansas City and St. Louis metropolitan areas. It is currently being actively maintained and updated nightly with new data from the [Johns Hopkins CSSE COVID-19 project](https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19). Summaries of their data for Missouri, Kansas, and Illinois are available in the `data/` folder, and the most recent visualizations are available in the `results/` folder. Historic data prior to March 22nd is now being obtained from the [New York Times COVD-19 project](https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data).

Separately, zip code data are being collected as of 2020-04-01 for the City of St. Louis and 2020-04-06 for St. Louis County. Daily raw data, a single table containing "long" versions of these raw data, and daily snapshots are available in the `data/` folder as well. Maps and plots tracking these in relation to race and poverty are available in `results/`.

## Notes

A [St. Charles man in his 70s](https://www.stltoday.com/news/local/metro/live-stl-area-coronavirus-updates-march-here-s-what-we/article_a286c517-46b2-5ac4-ac65-26ff7756aca1.html) died the same day, the first death for that county.
