Hi, Is the cumulative prevalence counted with the total number of cases or with the number of active cases (in the first graph, with the swiss map)? I guess both information would be interesting, but it might be good to distinguish them? Thanks for the great work All my best Marius

Cumulative prevalence refers here to the total reported cases.

Indeed it would be interesting to show active cases at the present time. A month ago there was not a big difference between active cases and total cases.
