The coronavirus tracking website CoronaTracker.com denies any kind of
information indicating that a certain individual indeed "resurrected"
from COVID-19 in the Philippines.
A number of posts circulating in
social media combines news reports with the CoronaTracker.com logo, alongside
with the Philippine coronavirus data, displaying a "1 Resurrected First
World Record" at the lower rightmost portion.
CoronaTracker.com does not report
people "resurrected" from the coronavirus disease. The tracking
portal only reports the number of COVID-19 cases, recoveries, and deaths per
country.
"Just like any other diseases, no
one resurrects from the coronavirus disease. Always observe precautionary
measures to avoid the risk of being infected," said Dr. Lau Cher Han, a
data scientist and full stack developer who leads the project.

CoronaTracker.com is an open-source,
community-based coronavirus tracking website portal keeping track of the latest
news and developments about the coronavirus pandemic and gathers data for
in-depth analysis (e.g. time series to monitor the growth, spread of the
virus), including localized news (e.g. news related to Malaysia, or Kuala
Lumpur only). Contents are handpicked, filtered, and curated by 460 volunteers
across the globe, ranging from data scientists, medical professionals, UI/UX
designers, and full stack developers ensuring these sources are reliable with
minimal hoaxes and fake news. Natural language processing (NLP) helps analyze
trending content and identify meaningful topics over various news sources and
social media platforms prior to verification.
The website portal is also featured in
the Bulletin of the World Health Organization.
