\n Jan Willem Tulp’s interactive graphic demonstrates how fast the coronavirus spreads.<\/span>

\n By the time this sentence reaches its period \u2014 about five seconds \u2014 at least two Americans will have been diagnosed with the coronavirus. In just over one minute, that number jumps to 25 on average, according to a new global data resource website COVIDSpreadingRates.org.<\/p>\n

In one day, that\u2019s some 36,000 new, confirmed cases of the coronavirus in the US alone \u2014 notwithstanding the estimated 4 out of every 5 cases that go undetected and unreported, according to previous research. At a mortality rate of app<\/a>roximately 3%, according to Johns Hopkins medical researchers, about 1,000 of those patients will not survive the disease.<\/p>\n

Powered with data collected by researchers in the UK, the new interactive graphic posted on COVIDSpreadingRates.org displays country-by-country case rates, depicted as a moving dial, increasing at every interval. Each time you refresh the page, the global ticker starts over. (Warning: If you have the sound on \u2014 the accompanying bell-tone is alarming.)<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope people become more aware of how fast the virus is spreading, especially in some countries,\u201d said data experience designer Jan Willem Tulp, who created the website. He hopes the \u201ctangible\u201d infographic, he told Fast Company, will prompt \u201ca sense of urgency and responsibility\u201d in people.<\/p>\n

These aren\u2019t case rates in real time. Data analysts pulled case counts from each country during the week of Sept. 7, then averaged the total in a 24-hour period to give a sense of about how many infections occur per hour, minute or second, depending on the country. In Barbados, for example, where a new case appears about once every two days, the dial moves imperceptibly.<\/p>\n

But here in the US, viewers can barely keep up with the constant rate. Even Tulp called the visual study \u201can eye-opener.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are already many COVID visualizations out there. But many of them are dashboards, maps, or common charts,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat I think was missing was getting an intuitive sense for these numbers. What does it mean if there are 600 new cases reported?\u201d<\/p>\n

The website also allows visitors to toggle to view new cases in proportion to population size, rather than the country\u2019s overall count \u2014 as a way of leveling the field. In this case, small countries which appear to have low numbers overall may be spreading COVID-19 throughout their population more quickly than nations with a much larger population. For example, the \u201cabsolute\u201d [overall] rate in the Cayman Islands, with just under 65,000 residents, boasts a seemingly manageable one new case every 2.5 days. But per 1,000,000, the rate jumps to one person every 3.5 hours.<\/p>\n

By the end of this story \u2014 a read of around less than two minutes \u2014 the US can count some 40-50 new coronavirus patients.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
