Show HN: SMA and Per100k-normalized graphs of Covid-19 cases/deaths by country

Since daily COVID-19 figures in seem to vary wildly (owing to fewer cases counted at weekends, excessive cases counted after weekends, and ongoing corrections&#x2F;adjustments), I built a tool to graph simple moving averages (e.g. 7-day-SMA, 30-day-SMA) of COVID-19 cases and deaths. This smooths things out and gives a clearer picture of general trends. The tool also allows you to normalize the same data per 100k people (to allow better immediate comparison between countries).<p>It uses the Johns Hopkins university data and updates automatically with the latest daily figures. I&#x27;ve got it running on an iPad in the corner of the room where it casts a warm, if somewhat miserable, glow on the room in the evenings.<p>Comments and feature suggestions welcome! Two features I already plan to add are:<p>- implementing swipe left&#x2F;right to flip through countries - data for a couple of notable countries is missing - I will of course add them (I need to aggregate the data for those first, as John Hopkins are publishing the figures broken down by region for those)
