ABSTRACT
The datafication process transforming society enables us to witness the pandemic from a global perspective. This article provides an example of immersive architecture in which coronavirus-related scientific literature was revealed during Ars Electronica 2021. Like a starry sky, a network visualization representing more than 600,000 articles was showcased in the Deep Space 8K theater, where spectators were accompanied in reading insights. The case study of 3D Cartography of COVID-19 illustrates a novel way to present data in public spaces to foster conversations and reflects on how visual data literacy can be addressed in museums. © John Benjamins Publishing Company.
ABSTRACT
P101 Figure 1(A) Monthly mortality of patients under Lane Fox Respiratory Service follow-up, dotted lines represent upper and lower bounds of 95% confidence intervals (B) Proportion of home mechanical ventilation (HMV) users in each disease category who died between 1st March and 30th ApriI by year[Figure omitted. See PDF]ConclusionsDeaths amongst HMV users at our regional ventilation centre were highest in the first two months following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. A subsequent fall in mortality may relate to effective shielding advice following national lockdown and departmental guidance offered. The majority of deaths were in patients with obesity-related respiratory failure. These data support previous observations that obesity is a major risk factor for adverse outcomes in patients with COVID-19.
