| ### Dataset Summary | |
| ArCOV-19 is an Arabic COVID-19 Twitter dataset that covers the period from 27th of January till 5th of May 2021. | |
| ArCOV-19 is the first publicly-available Arabic Twitter dataset covering COVID-19 pandemic that includes about 3.2M | |
| tweets alongside the propagation networks of the most-popular subset of them (i.e., most-retweeted and-liked). | |
| The propagation networks include both retweets and conversational threads (i.e., threads of replies). | |
| ArCOV-19 is designed to enable research under several domains including natural language processing, information | |
| retrieval, and social computing, among others. Preliminary analysis shows that ArCOV-19 captures rising discussions | |
| associated with the first reported cases of the disease as they appeared in the Arab world. In addition to the source | |
| tweets and the propagation networks, we also release the search queries and the language-independent crawler used to | |
| collect the tweets to encourage the curation of similar datasets. | |
