Professor Lauren Gardner has been awarded the 2022 Lasker-Bloomberg Public Service Award <https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/9/29/creator-of-johns-hopkins-covid-tracker-wins-top-us-science-award> for co-creating the Johns Hopkins COVID-19 dashboard. This has been collecting and making available information about the pandemic since almost before it came to world attention. For those who don’t want to go through that Twitter link, the dashboard is here <https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6>. Just tried the “Raw Data” link, and it goes to this GitHub area <https://github.com/CSSEGISandData>.
