Interpretation caveats

Things that may differ from how other sources define a similar measure. If you're combining this dataset with another, read these first.

  • —`new_cases` — Many countries publish weekly bulletins; OWID assigns each report to a single day, so day-of-week effects are artefactual. Smooth before any analytical use.
