app is showing absolute active cases per million, not current active cases

[matenestor]

This application is showing absolute value (from the very beginning) of cases per million (CPM). It would be better and more clear for a user, if it was showing current cases of infected people per milion in a country.

Actual result

• values in table column 5 (application CPM) calculated by 'Total Cases / country population'

Expected result

• values in table column 6 (real CPM) calculated by 'Active Cases / country population'

Coutry	Population	Total Cases	Active Cases	application CPM	real CPM
India	1 352,6 mln	31 332 159	408 950	22 471	302
USA	331,4 mln	35 283 075	5 158 542	105 937	15 565
Brazil	210,1 mln	19 632 443	752 561	91 673	3 581
Poland	38,2 mln	2 882 066	153 604	76 240	4 021
Czech Republic	1 672 340	10,7 mln	3 372	155 856	315
Denmark	5,8 mln	310 127	11 868	53 343	2 046

Population numbers are taken from Wikipedia. Active cases and application CPM numbers is what the application is showing. And last column real CPM is what it should be showing. As you can see, the numbers are diametrically different.

You are calculating CPM by dividing Total Cases by country population, but you should divide Active Cases instead so the information is more relevant. Or just put there another variable with this value.
