Datasets from the UK COVID-19 Outbreak • ukc19

A selection of aggregated COVID-19 data from the UK, in an easy to use form for teaching and demonstration purposes.

This data is sourced from publicly available data sets from various UK government websites where different aspects of the UK COVID-19 response published data, and from publicly available data from key studies. It is by no means comprehensive but aims to capture some of the main data in a single place so that it is preserved.

At present the data is mostly focused on England.
