Hafsa, a graduate of FAST-NU and Masters in Computer Science, has designed and programmed the Covid19 Tracker. While data source research and testing have been done by Rida, an MBA from the Lahore School of Economics.

The motivation for the launch of Covid19 Tracker stems from the fact that widespread misinformation during a pandemic can result in panic everywhere, said Hafsa.

“Therefore, we took it upon ourselves to offer authentic updates on the number of confirmed cases and deaths due to Coronavirus globally in nearly every major language spoken around the world,” stated Rida.


  • Very informative tracker. just one small suggestion to check the heat map figure against the tally figure.

  • Since Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic & WebMd get their Cotrona Virus Stats from WorldOMeter they lag behind WorldOMeters. Wonder why Hafsa & Rida pick up data from Johns Hopkins?
