What I don't like about that page is the way they hide the active cases graph, and when you show it it's tiny. I would like a graph that shows the active cases as its most important figure. Total cases is interesting from an immunity standpoint, but active cases is important from a "will i catch it" standpoint.

I'd prefer a graph that shows exactly how many tests are done by each country per day. All other extrapolation hinges on that. If the data is not available in a country (e.g. US), then everything for that country should come with a warning that says "we have no clue what is happening because we don't test"
