Fallback sources

Some countries have some kind of daily (or even hourly) online reporting by state agencies (e.g. France), state-run news agencies (e.g. Iran) or a reputable independent media outlet. These sources are preferred and we track them at the #Locations section. However, when these are not available or when they lag too much, we need to look for other sources. Here are some tips to find them:

  • Worldometer often cites their sources in the Latest Updates section. You may find reliable sources there.
  • Reuters has a high reputation as a reliable source and often publishes reports on new COVID-19 cases. You may use a search engine to find Reuters reports searching for site:reuters.com covid-19 (Google) and setting up filtering for the past 24 hours.
  • Xinhua News Agency publishes reports on new COVID-19 in many countries that are usually underreported. These reports might be found on xinhuanet.com or china.org.cn. Note that the date of the report might be previous to the date indicated in the dateline. When this happens, the actual date may be found in the first paragraph of the text.
