About VTS
An independent, real-time tracking of global health and disaster threats.
Why I built this
When a new disease outbreaks on the other side of the world, most of us have no idea until it spreads or until the news covers it in a panic. Even then, the numbers are often buried in paragraphs of text or hidden behind paywalls. By the time we see it, it may be too late to take meaningful action.
This site exists to give anyone, regardless of where they live, a straightforward, up-to-date picture of what is actually happening with active global health threats. No politics, no sensationalism. Just the numbers, sourced from the same agencies that governments rely on.
Data sources for current outbreaks
Sources are updated every few hours. (Note: CDC and WHO publish updates every 24–72 hours, so more frequent updates would read identical data.)
