This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
Data visualization is an essential tool for exploring and communicating findings in medical research, especially in epidemiological surveillance. The COVID19-Global online web application systematically produces daily updated data visualization and analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic on a global scale. It collects automatically daily data on COVID-19 diagnosed cases and mortality worldwide from January 1st, 2020 onwards. We have implemented comparative data visualization between countries for the most common indicators in epidemiological surveillance to follow an epidemic attack rate, population fatality rate, case fatality rate, and basic reproduction number. The application may help for a better understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic worldwide.
