As corona-virus is spreading so fast like a fire across countries, Microsoft's Bing team has launched a web portal to track its progress worldwide. The website provides up-to-date infection statistics for each country. An interactive map allows users to click on the country to see the specific number of cases and related articles from a variety of publishers. According to sources, data is being aggregated from sources like the World Health Organization (WHO), the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control.
Microsoft announced the website two days after US President Donald Trump said Google had begun working on COVID-19-related portal for US citizens. Google's website is being built by Verily, a subsidiary of Alphabet focused on healthcare services. More than 1,700 engineers are currently working on the site,Trump said during a press briefing last week.
