The Oxford COVID-19 Government Response Tracker (OxCGRT) is the first ever tool to track and compare policy responses of governments tackling the coronavirus outbreak around the world.
The tool, developed at the University of Oxford, systematically collects information on several different common policy responses governments have taken, scores the stringency of such measures, and aggregates these scores into a common Stringency Index. Such information on which governments have taken which measures, and when, can help decision-makers and citizens understand the robustness of governmental responses in a consistent way, aiding efforts to fight the pandemic.
Data is collected from public sources by a team of dozens of Oxford University students and staff from every part of the world.
