from covid import covid

# by default data source is "worldometers"
covid = Covid()

# or

covid = Covid(source="worldometers")

Check the Source

covid.source

result

"worldometers"

List Countries

This comes in handy when you need to know the available names of countries when using get_status_by_country_name, eg. "The Republic of Moldova" or just "Moldova" So use this when you need to know the country exact name that you can use.

countries = covid.list_countries()

result

[
    'china',
    'italy',
    'usa',
    'spain',
    'germany',
...
]

Get Total Active cases

active = covid.get_total_active_cases()

Get Total Confirmed cases

Get Total Recovered cases
