Coronavirus Graph: Daily Confirmed Coronavirus Cases Per Million | Bar Chart Race [Updated 30 Jun]

This coronavirus graph features the top 10 countries in the world by daily confirmed coronavirus cases per million inhabitants (7-day moving average) from 20 March 2020 to 30 June 2020. This serves as a timely follow-up video to the one on daily confirmed COVID-19 cases published at https://youtu.be/NwiCs4XVRdc.

This highly infectious disease (COVID-19) was first reported in the Chinese city of Wuhan in Hubei province on 31 December 2019. Since then, it has spread to almost all countries around the world, triggering governmental intervention of varying degree in attempts to reduce and contain the spread of the coronavirus outbreak.

From this bar chart race, as of 30 Jun 2020, the COVID-19 has infected 10.273 million people worldwide and caused a death toll of more than 505 thousand people. In relation to the current data, the global case fatality rate (CFR) now sits at a staggering 4.92%.

Note that the United Nations geoscheme devised by United Nations Statistical Division (UNSD) is utilized to group countries/economies/territories according to their macro-geographical location for the purpose of statistical analysis. Therefore, the resulting classification by no means represents the political status or any other affiliation of the countries or entities in question.

Note: Countries with population size of 100,000 people or less are not included to ensure a more robust and accurate comparison between countries affected by the coronavirus in the world.

1) To find out the 10 hardest-hit countries by the COVID-19 in terms of daily confirmed coronavirus cases per million people from 20 March 2020 to 30 June 2020.
2) To visually inspect the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak across the globe from the perspective of daily confirmed coronavirus cases per million over time with the help of the coronavirus graph.
