I've also appeared in a piece by CBC's Roberto Rocha titled 'The flurry of daily pandemic data can be overwhelming. Here's how to make sense of it.'
I commented on Johns Hopkins University's famous dashboard of confirmed coronavirus cases. I like that visualization, and we should all praise its authors, but I have some doubts about about the decision to represent cases by country (Europe and Africa) or by province/state (the United States, China). I think this can be easily misread, as it seems that the U.S. has many more cases than it has, in comparison to Europe, for instance. This is besides a pretty common problem in proportional symbol maps like this: overlap.
