#Problem description

- There is no unified authoritative Corona spread resource, for Latvia
- There is no authoritative resource which would present the latest Evidence Based facts about COVID-19. An example fact, would be, what are the pulmonary complications after recovery?
- There is no resource to easily find how the virus spread specifically in Latvia, backed up by source of the info.

#Solution description

- 4 Solutions:
   -- A map which as long as there is data, shows the very spread of the virus, signifying in red areas, where people should be extra careful, so not to become another disease vector.
   -- A panel which at a glance gives you the most relevant information:
     = how many discovered
     = where did the last ones where discovered
     = what is the back story - to understand how serious the situation has become
     = latest news regarding the disease
   == A way to see all the cases and their backstories starting from patient 0 for Latvia
   -- A place which has translated in Latvian the latest research on COVID-19, disinfection, statistics

#Expected impact your solution will have

- make people realize how dire is the current situation
- giving evidence based education on the why such societal isolation measures are necessary

#Go-to-market plan

- We have notified all the main news media and relevant governmental bodies of map's availiability, including the president.
- We will continue to check for data availability daily and continue to let people know of such a maps availability
- From governmental sources I have a reason to think that more precise data will be available once the infected count reaches a certain threshold, estimated in a week.
- I also have a reason to think that the government would find such a map tool useful for mapping the virus spread and visualizing data
- Let the president know that such a map is available

#Resources that you need

- A server
- Dedication to manually keep up to date information following tvnet.lv, SPKC twitter account and WHO research and other data sources that might become available.
- An authoritative data source from which to update data automatically or manually

#What did you achieve over these days (and what did you have beforehand)

- I have implemented automatic updates from tvent and SPKC twitter account, created a visually appealing user interface, gathered sources, translated them and connected them from a Google Sheets database

#All relevant links and resources

#Plans for futre

- implement a bar to scroll and see how new infected pop up by date
