U.S. is showing 33,227 recoveries on 4/30/2020 from a 1 - 2K trending average in the past month. Is this data correct? I think it is worth checking it out. Thanks!

We shifted the data source for US recovered cases from 1point3acres to the COVID tracking project, which reports higher number of recovered cases.

Thank you!

One more question, please. In the U.S. data sets, the sum of recovered cases on 4/30 shows 153,947. Is that a running total? If so, when I subtract the sum of recoveries in U.S. between 4/29 and 4/30 should give me 33,227. When I subtract 153,947 (4/30) from 147,484 (4/29) it gives me 6,463. What am I missing? Many thanks.
