COVID - 19 incidence data for Nigeria 27 Feb - 27 May 2020

This data set can be used to plot bar charts of COVID 19 incidence and estimate time dependent reproduction number in Nigeria and the six geo - political zones in the country. The data was collated from the daily COVID – 19 infections situation report in Nigeria numbers 01 – 89 from the 28th of February to 27th of May 2020 downloaded from the country’s Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) website (https://ncdc.gov.ng/diseases/sitreps/?cat=14&name=An%20update%20of%20COVID-19%20outbreak%20in%20Nigeria ). The data files in .csv are presented with r codes that can be used to recreate the analysis. We used the R software version 3.6.1 to draw a combine bar plot of COVID 19 incidence in Nigeria and across the six geo - political zones. We estimated the TD - R0 for the country and the six geo - political zones in the country using the EpiEstim package and tested the fitness in the pattern of distribution of the estimated TD - R0 across the six geo - political zones in the country using the Kolmogorov - Smirnov test adjusting for Type 1 error.

本数据集可用于绘制尼日利亚及其国内六个地理政治区的新冠病毒病（COVID-19）发病率柱状图，并估算其时变再生数（time dependent reproduction number）。本数据集汇编自2020年2月28日至5月27日期间第01至89期尼日利亚每日新冠疫情形势报告，相关报告从尼日利亚疾病控制中心（Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, NCDC）官网（https://ncdc.gov.ng/diseases/sitreps/?cat=14&name=An%20update%20of%20COVID-19%20outbreak%20in%20Nigeria）下载获取。本数据集附带可用于复现分析过程的R代码及.csv格式数据文件。本研究使用R软件3.6.1版本，绘制了尼日利亚全国及其六个地理政治区的新冠病毒病发病率联合柱状图。此外，本研究通过EpiEstim包估算了尼日利亚全国及六个地理政治区的时变再生数（Time-dependent Reproduction Number, TD-R0），并采用校正了一类错误的柯尔莫哥洛夫-斯米尔诺夫检验，对尼日利亚六个地理政治区的TD-R0估计值分布模式开展了拟合优度检验。
