I don't know from where the data came but death number 17 is not the number of Japan (Spain's one?) Coronavirus COVID-19  2019-nCoV  (2)

From time to time , I agree that there are some differences between official values known locally and the dataset . (As the picture is taken at a certain moment of the day which could be different for different countries , it could be difficult to compare data) In my opinion, except for huge anomalies, more important are the trends and compared ratio to see how the different countries manage the covid issues.

I mean, Latest official data from Data sources: WHO, CDC, ECDC, NHC and DXY are 7 deaths.

Locally known latest death number is +2 today until now, which means 9 deaths.

So I wonder from where this wrong data "17 deaths" for Japan came.

By new update, the death number becomes correct. Coronavirus COVID-19  2019-nCoV  (4)

I wonder how the wrong data can come but anyway thanks for correction by data update.
