Corona Cannonball

As every armchair epidemiologist, i keep my own statistics of the corona cases for all countries in the world. I find myself referring to them quite often when talking to people, so I thought it was about time to make them accessible through thus webpage:

What do these offer that you cannot find anywhere else?
These plots offer a somewhat unconventional view of the corona cases/deaths in the form of a Canonball diagram (Left panel). On the vertical axis you will find the new cases per day, and on the horizontal you will find the total number of cases. Thus time is implicit in these plots.

Why is this useful?
If you have processes governed by exponential growth or decline, these will show up as straight lines -- which are easy to identify.
These straight lines can then be used to make predictions for the future development, and in the case of decline can make a decent prediction for where the total numbers will end up. The projected development over the next two months is the visualized in the right hand panel.

Hope you find these graphs as useful as i have.
