Oxford Covid-19 Government Response Tracker (OxCGRT)




Final OxCGRT dataset available, June 2023
This repository contains old data. The OxCGRT stopped publishing real-time updates at the end of 2022. A final version of the OxCGRT dataset is available at https://github.com/OxCGRT/covid-policy-dataset
We recommend people only continue to use this OxCGRT/covid-policy-tracker repository if they need to access old or historical versions of the OxCGRT dataset.



The Oxford Covid-19 Government Response Tracker (OxCGRT) collected information on which pandemic response measures were enacted by governments, and when. This is a project from the Blavatnik School of Government. More information on the OxCGRT is available on the school's website: https://www.bsg.ox.ac.uk/covidtracker. This README contains information about using the database.

This repository is where we published OxCGRT data in real time across 2020-2023. We recommend people use the final version of the dataset (published in the OxCGRT/covid-policy-dataset repository linked above) as this has more jurisdictions, and more consistent data formats between files. This repository remains accessible primarily so people can access historical versions of the dataset. The previous version of this README has been moved to old_README.md.
