Modifications:

  • From the COVIDcast Epidata API: The signals case_rate and death_rate are taken directly from the JHU CSSE GitHub repo without changes, served through the Delphi API.

  • From the COVIDcast Epidata API: Averaged signals were computed from the original JHU-CSSE data by calculating moving averages of the preceding 7 days, so the signal for June 7 is the average of the underlying data for June 1 through 7, inclusive.

  • Furthermore, the data has been limited to a specific time range, the signal names slightly altered, and formatted into an epi_archive.
