2019-2020 Israel (including West Bank settlements) Coronavirus Outbreak

The detailed location data will stop updating from 15:00 20 March 2020. There will be hundreds of new cases everyday and it is not affordable to parse and validate the geographical information for each patient anymore. I will only provide the municipalities which are main areas of activities for each new patient. Go to the old detailed page.

Speed of growth

The exponential model is given as $$ y(t) = A_0 e^{\alpha t} $$ where \(t\) is the number of days after 21-Feb-2020. The coefficient \(\alpha\) of the exponent indicates the growth speed of the confirmed cases. Usually for COVID-19, it is between 0.20 to 0.35.

Epicenters of the Outbreak and Exposure Frequencies

The colors in this heat map indicates the length of the exposure time. The information is obtained from the CSV export tool on the website of the CoronaMap by the Ministry of Health.


Importing Routes of COVID-19 to Israel

There were major changes on the formats of the announcement on the spokesperson messages/ since 20-Mar-2020. Old parsing methods no longer work. Major flight routes are displayed by geodesic lines. The higher the opacity, the more frequent this flight route carried COVID-19 to Israel.
