Analysing the Covid-19 Cases in Kerala: a Visual Exploratory Data Analysis Approach

To analyse the Covid-19 cases and effective measures taken by the Kerala government in India to fight against the pandemic. To conduct an exploratory analysis of the model put forward by Kerala. Data were collected from various sources. Three phases were identified for analysis: first phase starting from January 30 to March 9, 2020; second phase starting from March 10 to May 8 and the last phase from May 9 to May 31, 2020. Data analysis was carried out in MATLAB software. The steps taken by the Kerala government ensured the virus to be contained in the affected persons itself. Community spread was reduced by the implementation of contact tracing and home quarantine. Welfare measures taken during the lockdown helped the people to adjust to the changes. The abstinence of community spread still stands strong. Apart from tackling the Covid-19 virus, Kerala with a series of welfare measures made the life of Kerala citizens comfortable. The model raised by Kerala for fighting against Covid-19 can be considered as a benchmark for how the public health department can be utilised properly.
