Searching Covid-19: Taking Action

Searching Covid-19

Project Brief

The Covid-19 pandemic is a global health crisis marked by extreme uncertainty, and we've been turning to the internet for answers. Schema partnered with Google News Initiative, Alberto Cairo (who provided art direction), and Axios to visualize our waves of interest in specific coronavirus-related topics over time. Using Google Trends data to analyze coronavirus-related search queries within the US, as well as English-language searches in five other countries, Schema created Searching Covid-19, a microsite that reveals the types of information we've been seeking as the pandemic has progressed.
