COVID-19 Spread

I'm not an epidemiologist, doctor, or any kind of expert on the subject.

One of the key messages from today's PM announcement is that things will get worse before they get better. I wanted to have a sense of the rate at which COVID-19 is spreading in Canada, so I made a graph, and did some math.

First, I got the data from https://www.covid-19canada.com

Date	Count
2020-03-02	27
2020-03-03	27
2020-03-04	33
2020-03-05	37
2020-03-06	48
2020-03-07	60
2020-03-08	64
2020-03-09	77
2020-03-10	95
2020-03-11	117
2020-03-12	157
2020-03-13	201
2020-03-14	254
2020-03-15	342

Then I plotted it on a graph and tried to use a basic exponential modem to extract some basic information.
