# COVID-19 Drug Trend Tracker on Twitter
This repository provides a daily summary of tweets mentioning drugs related to COVID-19.
## Twitter REST API
Tweets are collected using Twitter REST API by searching for drug names.
Only tweets containing known drug names and different lingustic variations of the keywords "COVID-19" or "SARS" are considered.
## Twitter Stream API
Please see ```/code/stream``` folder
Tweets identified by Twitter's COVID-19 stream tweet annotations.
These tweets are captured in real-time through a streaming connection.
The data contains full conversation about this topic, rather than a sample (using the basic API).
To produce results, we ingest, process, and analyze streaming data at a scale of tens of millions of tweets per day.
