The Italian Department of Civil Protection is now publishing detailed confirmed case statistics on GitHub. I just finished throwing together a little animated map of of how it's been spreading across provinces: https://observablehq.com/@jashkenas/italy-coronavirus-daily-cases-map-covid-19 https://observablehq.com/@jashkenas/italy-coronavirus-daily-...

Super interesting. For once it doesn’t look like a population density map.

  Thanks! It should keep updating every day, as new numbers are published.

  I suspect if you laid transportation networks and commerce centers over the data there would be some alignment.

Very nice, thank you! I reply with my humble contribution, based mainly on John Hopkins' data. I tried to understand if the effect of restrictions is already visible (I hope it will... since I live in Milan), thus I fitted an exponential on the data from the week before March 1 (when the initial mild restrictions started) and compared with the actual growth. https://www.kaggle.com/mattiamonga/covid19 https://www.kaggle.com/mattiamonga/covid19 The model is quite simplistic, but the decrease seems real. Let's hope a bigger one will happen in the next days.
