COVID-19 and Misinformation

COVIDCentral is a free, unbiased source of information for the COVID-19 Virus. Created because staying up to date and fighting misinformation is critical in times of crisis.

See it for yourself.

Studies have shown that people are more likely to believe something when they see it for themselves. The goal of CovidCentral was to demystify the information hidden in large data sets by showing relevant visualizations.

Answering Questions

There are three main questions people tend to have regarding the COVID-19 virus. How many people have died? How many people have it? Finally, are we flattening the curve? The graphs update each day to day to keep users up to date.

Results.

Before the site was even indexed by Google the site cultivated over 400 unique users. This was done organically through word of mouth and similar channels. We continue to have a steady stream of users visiting daily.
