A whole article about our app on Business Insider
Last Saturday, we realized that there wasn't an app for tracking the coronavirus. So we built one. Took us about 72 hours to build the MVP and a couple more days to add additional features.
Right now, we're exactly 7 days after the original moment we came up with the idea, so we're very excited that the press picked up the story.
You can see the app here: https://coronavirus.app

This is good, I probably wouldn't have made this spreadsheet last night if I knew about this ;)

One thing I'd suggest though, is to clarify what the "fatality rate" is. As this is the number that's often quoted in the media, but tends to be heavily disputed on reddit. Eg, I'm calculating it as the number of recovered vs the number of deaths. Confirmed cases is not much of a useful number because of the incubation period.
The short of it is that it's too early to tell what a more accurate rate is. But it's likely somewhere in between a % of the recovered and confirmed cases in relation to the number of deaths.
