Here are some Python Jupyter data science notebooks from October 2021 analyzing world COVID-19 data available from Our World in Data.
They are some of (the better) solutions produced by students as the first mini-project (out of three) in P176M010 Advanced Machine Learning course at Kaunas University of Technology Faculty of Informatics given by Mantas Lukoševičius.
Students had to come up with their own unique questions and answer them using the data. A solution template notebook was provided. A snapshot of the https://covid.ourworldindata.org/data/owid-covid-data.csv data from that time is included. Some of the solutions use additional sources of data.
The notebooks are provided for reference and instruction with no warranty of any kind. They are in the state that they were submitted originally. They are anonymized if the author so desired. Some additional data needed to run them might not be easily shareable. For that you may contact the authors directly.
