We’re pleased to announce the initial release of The MIDAS Curated Archive of Global Public Health Data. This archive contains COVID-19 datasets downloaded from public health agencies, ministries of health, and other governmental websites. The archive contains case, death, hospitalization, demographics, and vaccination information at country and, when possible, at lower administrative levels, collected daily or weekly for each disease of interest. Currently, the archive contains COVID-19 data for the United States, collected starting in February 2020.
The data are verified against the source by a combination of manual and automated processes, deduplicated, and are made publicly available with curated metadata. The archived public health data are organized by disease, geographic location, and source in “collections.” Each collection is associated with archived data that can be viewed and downloaded, with metadata information available in the MIDAS Catalog.
For more information, see the MIDAS Curated Archive of Global Public Health Data FAQ.
