Provides up-to-date data about Coronavirus outbreak. Includes numbers about confirmed cases, deaths and recovered. Support multiple data-sources.
Live global stats (provided by fight-covid19/bagdes) from this API:
JHU (our main data provider) no longer provides data for amount of recoveries, and as a result, the API will be showing 0 for this statistic. Apolegies for any inconvenience. Hopefully we'll be able to find an alternative data-source that offers this.
Currently 2 different data-sources are available to retrieve the data:
-
jhu - https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19 - Worldwide Data repository operated by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CSSE).
-
csbs - https://www.csbs.org/information-covid-19-coronavirus - U.S. County data that comes from the Conference of State Bank Supervisors.
jhu data-source will be used as a default source if you don't specify a source parameter in your request.
All endpoints are located at coronavirus-tracker-api.herokuapp.com/v2/
and are accessible via https. For instance: you can get data per location by using this URL:
https://coronavirus-tracker-api.herokuapp.com/v2/locations
You can open the URL in your browser to further inspect the response. Or you can make this curl call in your terminal to see the prettified response:
curl https://coronavirus-tracker-api.herokuapp.com/v2/locations | json_pp
Consume our API through our super awesome and interactive SwaggerUI (on mobile, use the mobile friendly ReDocs instead for the best experience).
