🔍 WANTED: We are looking for data and data curators

Currently we are looking for case counts data and other statistical information from different countries as well as for people who can maintain this data (add, curate, update).

The entire process should be automated as much as possible. The README in the directory covid19_scenarios/data contains some information on how to get started:

https://github.com/neherlab/covid19_scenarios/data

It also contains the preprocessed data ready for the consumption by the build system of the app.

If you think you may know where to find the relevant data for a country, please let us know either in this thread, or open an issue. If you are ready to contribute, feel free to open a pull request.

Don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions or if you need something to get started!

For Brazil, I saw that the data available at https://brasil.io/dataset/covid19/ have been used. Great! However, some data is outdated. For example, today, the last record in “BRA-Distrito Federal.tsv” is for 2020-04-30. Who is working with the Brazilian data? I’m willing to help if needed. In the opportunity, I would like to thank the project’s team! We used Covid Scenarios in a publication [1] that had a relevant local repercussion.
