Google Maps Covid-19 Feature Allows Users To See Cases In A Specific Area

(CBS DETROIT) – Google maps is also rolling out a new feature, allowing users to see how prevalent Covid-19 is in a given area.

Here's how it works: you can click on the upper right-hand corner of your screen when looking at an area on the map.

You can then click "Covid-19 info" where it will show a 7-day average of new cases in the area and notify you if they are increasing.
