Maps and graphs of case evolution in Spain and the world

* This information is updated once a week. The above figures are current as of April 4, 2022

Check out the evolution of the pandemic in the world, from January 2020 to the present. elDiario.es analyzes data compiled by Johns Hopkins University to show graphs and figures for infections and deaths worldwide.

1) Pandemic world

The following map shows the main variables to show the epidemic situation in each country of the world: if cases increase or decrease (trend), new cases per capita in the last two weeks (cumulative case in 14 days). Total number of COVID-19 deaths per million population. Click on the map buttons at the top to see each variable.

Note that only the cases detected by the health authorities of each country from the date of the outbreak are shown. In other words, the indicators are closely linked to the ability of each government to test its population.

In the case of Spain, 47,080 cases confirmed by antibody tests by 27 May 2020 are included in the cases confirmed by PCR.

2) Evolution by countries, at a glance

The evolution of the pandemic was different in each country and continent. To see what the trend was in some of the most affected countries, this chart shows the daily occurrence rate, daily new cases, and daily new deaths. Click the buttons at the top of the graph to see each variable.

3) Infections and death worldwide

This is how the total number of new cases and new deaths from the beginning of the pandemic has been developing day by day in all countries of the world. To avoid data peak (delaying messages, correcting series, etc.) and to see evolution better, a weekly average is also shown. Click the buttons at the top to see each variable.

4) Evolution of the virus on each continent

One year after the pandemic began, Europe equalized its contagious curve, while Asia experienced its worst moment. How has COVID-19 evolved in each region of the world? The following graph shows the evolution of new cases detected in major regions of the world. The average for the last 7 days is shown to better visualize the trend of virus spread across each continent.

5) Curves, by country

The rate of pandemic expansion varies from country to country. How did the curve develop in the most affected countries? To test this, we calculated the evolution of new cases and new daily mortality confirmed by the health authorities of each country and set the average for last week.

6) An epidemic in Spain, in context

What is the situation in Spain compared to other countries? The following curves show the evolution of daily incidence and mortality per 100,000 population.

Note that the curves show the observed cases. That is, at what time the country declared these infections or deaths. For this reason, some countries have anomalous peaks on some dates that have added to many deaths or strokes.

7) Impact of vaccination on mortality

Vaccines do not eliminate the risk of transmitting the disease, but they do significantly reduce the chance that mild symptoms will worsen and turn into severe symptoms that require hospitalization, intensive care, and, ultimately, mortality. -19.

The following graph allows us to compare the mortality rate of the last two weeks in relation to the population of each country with the percentage of the population that received the full graph of the coronavirus vaccine.

8) All data, by country

In the following table you can see the data of each country in detail. It shows: new cases reported last week and the previous week and what the trend is (if they increase, decrease or remain stable), as well as the incidence rate per million population in 14 days. In addition, we added total mortality data and populations for each country.

8) Coronavirus in Spain, by the Autonomous Community

The state of the pandemic in each autonomous community in Spain, according to the latest data published by the Ministry of Health. Click on each region to see the total number of casualties per 100,000 population.

9) Cases per capita in autonomous communities

To determine the degree of penetration of the virus compared to the population, we calculated the confirmed incidence rate and the number of deaths per 100,000 population in each region. Confirmed cases refer to cases detected by PCR or antibody test – the latter being considered to have only compatible symptoms after May 11th.
