Covid-19 Real-Time Dashboard

Abstract

The Covid-19 Real-time Tracker collects systematic information on policy measures that governments have taken to tackle COVID-19. The different policy responses are tracked since 1 January 2020, cover more than 180 countries, and are coded into 23 indicators, such as school closures, travel restrictions, and vaccination policy. These policies are recorded on a scale to reflect the extent of government action, and scores are aggregated into a suite of policy indices. The data can help decision-makers and citizens understand governmental responses in a consistent way, aiding efforts to fight the pandemic.
