According to reports, Google announced on Wednesday that it will launch a new feature in Google Maps that will display cases of new coronary pneumonia in the user’s area .
The data for this feature comes from Johns Hopkins University, the New York Times and Wikipedia. A color map will be displayed and the average number of new cases per 100,000 people in a specific area for 7 days. This feature will be launched in 220 countries or regions.
This means that users can open Google Maps to view the outbreak situation in their area, so as to keep abreast of the latest epidemic situation when the epidemic is rapidly erupting this fall and winter. In this way, it is possible to more clearly determine whether a new round of epidemic is brewing in a certain area before traveling.
This feature will be launched for iPhone and Android this week. So although users cannot use this feature today, it can be updated gradually in the next few days.
