Abstract
Novel Coronavirus (COVID -19) is a deadly pandemic which had a global outbreak, and it affected millions of lives (globally). This deadly virus originated from China (hence, it was initially named as the China – Virus). The Novel Coronavirus was the secondary variant of the initial SARS – COVID -1 Disease, which also broke out in China in the year 2003. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID -19), the highly contagious infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2), has a catastrophic effect on the world’s demographics resulting in more than 2.9 million deaths worldwide, emerging as the most consequential global health crisis since the era of the influenza pandemic of 1918. This global crisis led to fear and confusion among people, and also the fake news and rumors about the Covid -19 count led to a global outrage. This led to the demand of a trustworthy and reliable source of information on the current global coronavirus count. So this project helps to ensure real-time, accurate data of the current global coronavirus count. The active cases, the total outbreak count, etc. For that we need a simple program which can run on a computer without caring about the platform where the system is running. So, it should be platform independent for that we use Java which it an platform independent programming language with help of its graphics library JavaFx we can create simple yet effective program which can track live covid-19 cases and show it to the user.
