Worldometer.info vs. Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Map

Johns Hopkins coronavirus map is arguably the most popular coronavirus map tracker in the world, with more frequently searches and citations than Worldometer.info (source: Google Trends, Mar 29, 2020) Also, Johns Hopkins is one of the most renown universities in the world, with #1 public health school in the world. It is very shocking that Worldometer.info is being cited, where it's methodology has not been independently verified and it appears Worldometer.info is a for-profit private company that sells live-counters (https://www.worldometers.info/licensing/). My proposal is to cite the Johns Hopkins official tracker instead of Worldometer.info, since Johns Hopkins source has no conflict-of-interest in terms of financial incentives, more reliable and reputable source that has been validated unlike the Worldometer.info source.Rwat128 (talk) 15:35, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

" Johns Hopkins is one of the most renown universities in the world"

No it isn't. It's one of the most renowned in America not the entire world.

" with #1 public health school in the world."

You can't be this stupid surely? America doesn't even have any "public health" and there are dozens of superior medical schools in Europe alone.

" it appears Worldometer.info is a for-profit private company"

As John Hopkins is a private for-profit university. 82.24.171.177 (talk) 14:47, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Johns Hopkins is a private Non-profit university (Source:501C3 Nonprofit Organization). Most top universities in the US are non-profit and have tax-exempt status. Johns Hopkins has the world's #1 ranked public health school in the US (Source: rankings) and #2 medical schools in the US (Source: rankings). It is far more reputation wise than Worldometer.info which has a for-profit company motive to sell live counter licenses.Rwat128 (talk) 22:21, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Corona virus in Rwanda

As of 3/29/2020,there are ~60 confirmed cases in Rwanda, most of which were determined to be positive at the Kigali airport as travelers entered the country. About a week ago, Rwanda had already closed the airport for 30 days, prohibiting traveler entry and exit. Kigali, the capital city, is not allowing for any local residential travel except for food and medical services. The Rwandan government is very proactive in disease prevention, thus they must remain active in corona virus spread. Major food sources within the country come from hand labor without the aid of mechanized implements. The Rwandan growing season is almost a full year long process, thus food supplies should remain plentiful provided the virus does not inhibit individual farm production. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2606:A000:1120:8045:E90D:BE1E:2665:AD41 (talk) 16:11, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Germany Data Source: switch from Zeit Online to Tagesspiegel?

For Germany, the most up-to-date and accurate source for cases, deaths and approx. recoveries is Tagesspiegel as their data source is completely open, allowing anyone to view the local government sources for every municipality/city. There are serious concerns with Zeit Online's numbers, as there are numerous instances of double counting municipalities, meaning depending on the day their number of infected cases could be off by 500-1000, plus their recovery numbers are not accurate. I can provide more info if needed, but it would also be good to refer to the discussion on the Wikipedia page under "Semi-protected edit request on 29 March 2020", which has led to this German coronavirus wiki page to switch to Tagesspiegel as the primary source for cases, deaths and approx. recoveries. Please note that the recoveries much higher, by double right now, from Zeit Online, but Tagesspiegel's methodology is more reliable and it is the same that the German federal government's Robert Koch Institute is using.T.A.Girard (talk) 23:27, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

In the table "2019–20 coronavirus pandemic by country and territory" please change the number of cases, deaths, recovered for Germany to match the more up-to-date and accurate data source of Tagesspiegel . This means currently (01:00 Berlin time, 02 Apr) the German numbers should be changed to 77,981 cases, 931 deaths and 18,700 recovered. This is because this data source is more reliable since it is completely open, allowing anyone to view the local government sources for every municipality/city. The Zeit Online data source has errors that are cause for concern.

Four times more

"A study of three municipalities in Italy has indicated that the number of deaths may be underreported by a factor of four". The idea that the number of deaths in all Italy is four times more is a total fabrication by the mayor of Nembro which, without any source cited, stated that since the number of cases in Nembro (worst affected municipality of all Italy) is four times more this means that this is also the case in all the country.

Yesterday ISTAT released some data on the total deaths during the first 3 weeks of March, which suggest that in Bergamo the number of deaths could be twice the official count (very different from 4 times more), while in other areas the underestimate could be much lower (and close to non existent in the less effected area in the South and Centre of the country). At the moment ISTAT and ISS are working to estimate the real numbers.

So the phrase is clearly false and should be removed or reformulated.--79.44.25.206 (talk) 09:04, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Chinese numbers are a severe undercount according to US intelligence agencies

• There needs to be a note or caveat made with the numbers of cases from the People's Republic of China, which has now been revealed to have deliberately covered up the true extent of the outbreak there, since at least November. According to various US intelligence agencies, China has concealed the extent of the coronavirus outbreak in its country, under-reporting both total cases and deaths it’s suffered from the disease.

"Deborah Birx, the State Department immunologist advising the White House on its response to the outbreak, said Tuesday that China’s public reporting influenced assumptions elsewhere in the world about the nature of the virus. 'The medical community made -- interpreted the Chinese data as: This was serious, but smaller than anyone expected,' she said at a news conference on Tuesday. 'Because I think probably we were missing a significant amount of the data, now that what we see happened to Italy and see what happened to Spain.'" [3]

These Wikipedia numbers are being used in Google searches as a "source" for number of cases. The misinformation from China, and thus also the WHO (which failed to label this correctly as a pandemic early on, despite calls from experts to do so), has already caused severe hardship that was preventable, and has made the suffering worse in this pandemic. Wikipedia needs to take action on this immediately. 142.116.178.22 (talk) 19:47, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

US intelligence agencies are not a reliable source. Actually they are an adversarial actor to China. --MarioGom (talk) 21:37, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Yes, they ARE a reliable source according to Wikipedia policy, and certainly Bloomberg is. The CIA and NSA have more information than you even understand. The United States government, and sources from them, are used across Wikipedia and are reliable sources according to policy here. Where's your evidence they are not reliable for Wiki? The People's Republic of China and its corrupt agencies - which includes arresting and silencing a doctor who tried to alert the public in early December - are NOT reliable sources, yet you are erroneously taking them at face value. Your comment will be ignored. 142.116.178.22 (talk) 22:01, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

No you ARE NOT a reliable source, you need to provide evidence that they are. "The CIA and NSA have more information than you even understand." No, they really don't. "yet you are erroneously taking them at face value. " Because that's what the figures are, according to China, not US intelligence agencies. Another stupid American.

Based upon the content of MarioGom's user page, this person is a compromised or biased editor in favour of the Communist Party of China.

The CIA is hardly a reliable source considering how they flip flop. We can mention this somewhere but not as a fact but rather framed in the war of narratives. Incidentally there are sources shwoing practically every single country in the world is undercounting Corona deaths. I suggest the political edit warriors take a chill pill here. Php2000 (talk) 11:37, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Regardless of your personal concerns about the CIA, they are a reliable source per Wikipedia's policy, so if they cast doubt on China's numbers, it ought to be noted at the very least. More to the point, there is a difference between under-counting due to lack of ability to know every possible case versus deliberate suppression, the latter of which is what China has been doing, according to intelligence sources. Keep in mind that this is what US intelligence sources are alleging, I never said it was completely proven, in case that comes up. Wikipedia requires only reliable sources, not infallible ones. -- 69.86.190.130 (talk) 16:54, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

"Regardless of your personal concerns about the CIA, they are a reliable source per Wikipedia's policy" No, they literally aren't. Deal with your own personal, jingoistic feelings on the matter first. The CIA is not a reliable source. End of story.

Dismissing a source Wikipedia itself considers legitimate on the grounds that I am somehow "jingoistic" or otherwise biased on zero grounds is no way to operate a website. Either Wikipedia considers the CIA and US Intelligence reports to be reliable or not. You don't have to agree with Wikipedia or appreciate the policy. -- 69.86.190.130 (talk) 01:24, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

The CIA isn't a source here. Bloomberg is. Bloomberg does not say the numbers are underreported, Bloomberg writes unspecified "intelligence officials" claims that. They don't mention the CIA even once in the article. The US intelligence community has a strong interest to question numbers from other countries, so they are not a very neutral information source. At most this can lead to a note that the numbers are disputed by some. It's probably better to write a general note that numbers of some countries are questioned by others. --mfb (talk) 05:47, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Our figures for France do not include territories in Overseas France, which are listed separately. This is the way the World Health Organization is reporting statistics too. --MarioGom (talk) 13:06, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Please add European Union as separate entity

I strongly believe the data should include the European Union separately. The rationale here is multi-fold. A few key reasons are

• It's very hard to look at data of the entire US and interpret it without putting it into context against a comparable sized entity like ie the European Union
• Comparing sub-regions of the USA make sense: NY State (19 million) vs Netherlands (18 million). It makes less sense however to compare ie Netherlands vs the USA. For that, you need to look at the wider context and the closest logical block here is the EU
• The virus does not respect borders. That said, the external borders of the EU have been closed. Intra-EU traffic is ongoing, but external-EU traffic has been reduced to a virtual standstill
• Finally, the same logics here applies as to why the CIA World Factbook and others have included the EU: Although the EU is not a federation in the strict sense, it is far more than a free-trade association such as ASEAN or Mercosur, and it has certain attributes associated with independent nations: its own flag, currency (for some members), and law-making abilities, as well as diplomatic representation and a common foreign and security policy in its dealings with external partners.

Thus, inclusion of basic intelligence on the EU has should be deemed appropriate as a separate entity. Rdeman (talk) 17:03, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Rdeman: As far as I know, none of the reliable sources that publish worldwide figures does EU-level statistics. Also, given the high volume of updates, it is unlikely we would be able to keep EU-level statistics consistent. --MarioGom (talk) 13:08, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Free travel exists within the Schengen area, which does not include all EU member states but includes some countries not in the EU. And recently many countries closed borders within the Schengen area. The virus does not respect borders but we need to group the cases somehow, countries are the natural level for that. In addition the testing/mitigation strategy varies a lot between different EU countries. --mfb (talk) 05:49, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

According to the Government of Pakistan's portal (http://covid.gov.pk/), the total number of cases as of last night was 2547 (not 2680) and 37 deaths (not 40). Please update your statistics because its caused quite a stir. Both BBC Urdu and Dawn News picked up on this number, despite the fact the Government of Pakistan portal which you use as Pakistan's source says 2547.

Not applicable anymore. As of today, Pakistan figures match covid.gov.pk again. You may want to post future corrections at Template talk:2019–20 coronavirus pandemic data. Thank you for the report. --MarioGom (talk) 13:10, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi, your total number of confirmed covid-19 cases for France is wrong and not in line with your own source. Pleas align it with your source, which is correct. Thanks 2001:B07:AE6:267B:3569:C08E:EFD6:99F2 (talk) 06:09, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

See the notes. Overseas France territories are splitted. This is the same scheme used by the World Health Organization. --MarioGom (talk) 08:48, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Table of external territories

I'm sure that table of external territories must consists from two territories only - Norwegian Svalbard and Australian Coral See Islands. Another countries, included in current table of external territories, must be convert into Overseas Territories table. I propose full list of countries for Overseas Territories table (what exists as subjects of international politics): 1. American Samoa 2. Bonaire 3. Christmas Island 4. Cocos Islands 5. Cook Islands 6. Niue 7. Norfolk Island 8. Pitcairn Islands 9. Saba 10.Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha 11. Saint Pierre and Miquelon 12. Tokelau 13. Wallis and Futuna

All another territories, what included in the table now, must be exclude, because they are the parts of independent countries or dependent territories. 10:09, 5 April 2020 (UTC)CrazyRepublican (talk)

States with no recognition or limited recognition

Due to fact, that territories of Jubaland, Puntland and Rojava do not seek recognition as an independent entity, I think, that they must be excluded from table of States with no recognition or limited recognition. CrazyRepublican (talk) 10:16, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
