3/29 update and sources

Hey @DividedFrame: I updated the stats using coronavirusapi.com, which I generally trust. I saw you felt unsure about the recent numbers, so I hope this helps. If not, please let me know and I won't machine-update them anymore. tedder (talk) 00:29, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The two sources do not agree. The dashboard numbers are higher, perhaps updated faster than the official daily report, which also does not always update every day. Trackinfo (talk) 07:41, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"He's only mostly dead!"

54,771.5 cases? 1,118.7 deaths??? Grutness...wha? 06:54, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See talk on the main Alabama Covid-19 page, under "Problems with the COVID-19 Cases Chart.": data is missing for cases and deaths, from July 9th, 2020, onward. What happened? I added data for July 14, and again today, for July 15, [and I added a very crude linear extrapolation estimate for July 9-13, but this should be fixed with real data!]. I will not be able to keep it up to date. On the | data-source page, does it have historical data?? All I see is the most recent day's data. But the historical data must be buried there, somewhere! Where is it? :-) Under Tab 6, it has a graph with the cumulative case count, but I don't see the data the graph is derived from. Wtf2wtf (talk) 05:23, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
