time
This scatter plot visualizes COVID-19 death data from the NY Times rolling-averages US dataset over time. It uses D3 v6 to render an SVG with a time-scaled x-axis and linear y-axis, drawing one circle per data point. The code employs `scaleTime`, `scaleLinear`, `extent`, `axisBottom`, `axisLeft`, and `timeFormat` to construct the axes and plot. Additional text labels mark the chart as showing “COVID-19 Deaths” for the United States, with a data source attribution and annotations referencing vaccination thresholds.
