Information for downloading, cleaning and processing COVID-19 region data for Switzerland
Liechtenstein is not a canton of Switzerland, but is presented in the
source data as a peer of Swiss cantons and assigned the two letter code
FL
. covidregionaldata
modifies this and presents the region code
for Liechtenstein as FL-FL
, consistent with the Swiss ISO 3166-2 codes
which are of the form CH-BE
, CH-ZH
, CH-VD
, ...
If you do not wish to work with Liechtenstein data, filter out on this code. Note that this is labelled as a ISO 3166-2 code but Liechtenstein's real ISO 3166-2 codes refer to sub-national regions.
In addition to the standard covidregionaldata
columns provided,
the OpenDataZH source data provides other figures for ICU occupancy,
number of patients on ventilators, and the how many individuals are
isolated or quarantined. These columns are passed through unchanged.
Further detail on them can be found at
