Intro

This repository is based on a data-science based research work, where I have given a mathematical model to estimate the growth rate of the novel Coronavirus in China.
Here the status of the cases in mainland of China within 7-8 days from March 21st are predicted.
In this work, we have also varified, the steps taken by the Chianese government as well as how accurate we analysed the things, with our estimates.

It basically works on the linear regressions. The data used in this reasearch is collected from various sources inscuding Johns Hopkins University and Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (Government of India). A similar approach can also be used to understand and slightly predict the rate of growth of the COVID-19 in any region of the world.
