This massive data analysis entry from Our World in Data is a pretty good example of how to take a data set and beat the crap out of it from every angle.

I like what they did. Since it’s by country, it allows interesting comparisons across countries but is not meant to provide local or regional-specific information. Countries are pretty big. My favorite trackers that are most relevant to my situation are still the City Observatory analyses of U.S. metro areas and the University of Washington simulations of available hospital capacity. The latter are by state.
