Palestine data is missing #1062

Open rollick opened 4 years ago

I have been tracking cases in Palestine but the data has disappeared. Where is the data?

Also hoping to see this data. Of course, for me, "Palestine" is all of pre-1948 Palestine, but regardless of the naming, I hope the data can be made accessible.

If this repo is not going to fix the error then can we share here unmanipulated sources for WHO data? Or, maybe CSSE can open source the scripts they are using so someone else can create the data set.

@eyalroz This project might accept sources for Palestine data: https://coronadatascraper.com/#sources

@eyalroz They have added "West Bank and Gaza" now. So @CSSEGISandData is still sadly trying to play politics. Once they include the ISO code for each record then they can use the "Palestine, State of" as this is the official name for the ISO code PSE. Ideally they should be separating West Bank and Gaza under State of Palestine since each has very different challenges so it is important to see the data separately.
