Abstract
This article contains data on country-specific variability in
Covid-19 prevalence, incidence, and case fatality rate among
the 238 countries globally. We used the World Health Organization worldwide Covid-19 tracking site to determine the
number of confirmed Covid-19 cases, the number of fatalities attributed to Covid-19, and the case fatality rate for
each of 238 countries. Using data from the United Nations
Department of Economic and Social Affairs, we extracted
key country-specific metrics with potential associations with
Covid-19 including total population, land area, population
density, percentage of residents living in urban areas, and
median age. We extracted country-specific economic indicators from The World Bank Group Open Data database. All
data were extracted on August 15, 2020. We developed consolidated data sets and calculated the country-specific point
prevalence and incidence of Covid-19 and associated deaths.
These data are associated with the article “Spatial Analysis of
Global Variability in Covid-19 Burden”. Data are stored in a
comma separated value format and can be downloaded from
the Data in Brief website.
