COVID-19, Pandemic, VirusAbstract
This document shows the report on the spread of the virus in Ecuador during the most critical months of the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis was performed by applying descriptive statistical techniques through graphs generated in the free software RStudio, using packages such as ggplot2, gganimate, highchapter, among others. The statistical study is carried out with a database showing the daily records of infections and deaths by province for 187 days. The types of graphs used are dynamic bar charts and scatter diagrams that are a function of the different days of the study. In addition, a geographical map of the entire country shows the level of affectation in each zone. In this way it was possible to show that the most affected provinces were Guayas and Pichincha, which are considered the most populated.
