Abstract

Individuals infected by a novel coronavirus (nCoV) were first reported in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. Data on the numbers of daily confirmed new cases, deaths, hospitalized cases, and tested cases were available online. In this presentation, we will share our work on visualizations and predictions of these numbers. Other relevant issues will also be discussed.
