title: Corona Virus (COVID-19) Tweets Dataset

description: Tweets Counter: 27,805,517This dataset includes CSV files which contain the tweet IDs. The tweets have been collected by the LSTM model deployed here at sentiment.live. The model monitors the real-time Twitter feed for corona virus-related tweets, using filters: language “en”, and keywords “corona”, "coronavirus", "covid", "covid19" and variants of "sarscov2". As per the Twitter Developer Policy, it is not possible for me to provide information other than the Tweet IDs (this dataset has been completely re-designed on March 20, 2020, to comply with data sharing policies set by Twitter). Note: This dataset should be solely used for non-commercial research purpose (ignore every other LICENSE category given in this page).Schema of the CSV files: First column: tweet ID, Second column: Sentiment score for the particular tweet.Files details (Tweets collected in GMT+0; Local time mentioned below: GMT+5:45):corona_tweets_01.csv: 831,327 tweets (March 20, 2020 01:37 AM - March 20, 2020 10:28 AM)corona_tweets_02.csv: 870,924 tweets (March 20, 2020 10:31 AM - March 20, 2020 09:43 PM)corona_tweets_03.csv: 773,729 tweets (March 20, 2020 09:49 PM - March 21, 2020 09:25 AM)corona_tweets_04.csv: 1,233,340 tweets (March 21, 2020 09:27 AM - March 22, 2020 07:46 AM)corona_tweets_05.csv: 1,782,157 tweets (March 22, 2020 07:50 AM - March 23, 2020 09:08 AM)corona_tweets_06.csv: 1,771,295 tweets (March 23, 2020 09:11 AM - March 24, 2020 11:35 AM)corona_tweets_07.csv: 1,479,651 tweets (March 24, 2020 11:42 AM - March 25, 2020 11:43 AM)corona_tweets_08.csv: 1,272,592 tweets (March 25, 2020 11:47 AM - March 26, 2020 12:46 PM)corona_tweets_09.csv: 1,091,429 tweets (March 26, 2020 12:51 PM - March 27, 2020 11:53 AM)corona_tweets_10.csv: 1,172,013 tweets (March 27, 2020 11:56 AM - March 28, 2020 01:59 PM)corona_tweets_11.csv: 1,141,210 tweets (March 28, 2020 02:03 PM - March 29, 2020 04:01 PM)----- March 29, 2020 04:05 PM - March 30, 2020 12:30 PM -- Some folk(s) messed around with the server.

With the addition of these keywords, the tweets/day reach beyond a couple of millions, therefore, the CSV files hereafter will be zipped. Lets save some bandwidth----------corona_tweets_31.csv: 2,671,818 tweets (April 18, 2020 10:19 AM - April 19, 2020 09:34 AM)To make it easy for the NLP researchers to get access to the sentiment analysis of each collected tweet, the sentiment score out of TextBlob [1] has been appended as the second column. New list of tweet IDs will be added to this dataset every day. Bookmark this page for further updates. [1] https://textblob.readthedocs.io/en/dev/
