This chart visualizes the global cumulative death toll from the Coronavirus pandemic over time, using a logarithmic Y-axis to reveal the exponential growth pattern across the spring of 2020. The line graph, rendered using React and SVG, plots daily totals sourced from the Johns Hopkins CSSE dataset via a CSV fetch. It employs D3’s `scaleLog` for the vertical axis, `scaleTime` for the horizontal date axis, and custom `XAxis` and `YAxis` components that draw grid lines. The chart emphasizes the dramatic rate of increase, with a marker line annotating the 10,000-death threshold.
