Launched in March 2020, the COVID Tracking Project was a volunteer-powered data journalism project to count case and testing information on COVID-19 from every state in the country.
In the first two parts of this special podcast from Reveal, at the Center for Investigative Reporting, you’ll learn more about the origins of the project – and why its founders thought it was necessary to fill in the gaps in data reporting.
Suggested time: 50 minutes each
