Microsoft on Monday launched a web portal that keeps a track of the coronavirus cases around the globe. The tracker is available as a part of the company’s Bing products and it gives details about the active and recovered cases of coronavirus country wise. The site also tracks the fatalities around the world. Interestingly enough, users can also access this tracker via Google Chrome and Apple’s Safari web browsers.

The tracker, which can be accessed at -- https://www.bing.com/covid, sources information from various credible sources such as the World Health Organisation (WHO), the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC).

Microsoft’s coronavirus tracking website is a fairly basic tracker. It gives a break of coronavirus cases around the world. When you click on a particular country, the tracker sources news stories and videos relevant to that country along with the stats pertaining to the coronavirus outbreak in that country. But, for people in the US, the tracker also gives a state-by-state division of the coronavirus cases along with the relevant news stories and videos.
