high density stacked column barchart?

Hello everyone

 

How can I get a stacked column bar chart like this below?

 

I found this chart on WHO website (https://covid19.who.int/) and have a problem duplicate it.

 

Raw data can be downloaded from https://covid19.who.int/table.

 

Many thanks!

What is the issue you are having?  I downloaded the csv, loaded it to Power BI, and made a Stacked Column Chart with the Date reported on X axis, Region on legend and cases in Values field well to get the chart below.

@mahoneypatThanks for your reply. I forgot to set the X-axis as "continuous", so there are always blanks between bars.
