There are a couple of new block parameters:
- countryCode: 2 character ISO Alpha-2 code for the country to report on. Without this, it will report globally. E.g. Netherlands is NL, Spain is ES, etc. This code is also used to display the flag for the country.
- startDate: all data starts on 20/01/2020. The user can specify when they want to report from.
Report blocks can be either "global" or "country specific". There are several report options:
- Confirmed - the number of confirmed cases
- Deaths - the number of deaths
- Ratio - the ratio that shows for each infected person there are X amount of uninfected people, e.g. 1:2500 equates to one infected person for every 2,500 people
- Doubling - reports on rate of infection in a specific country, i.e. how many hours to double. This cannot be used for global stats.
