The "deaths" data for Tokyo on July 28th is incorrect since it shows 23 deaths but a different number has been reported by other sources. Github Source (difference in 2 dates is 23): 28 July : 2285 https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/blob/a709afe7d89fd24236b9fb1196462cd1c69c7e6c/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/07-28-2021.csv 27 July : 2262 https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/blob/a709afe7d89fd24236b9fb1196462cd1c69c7e6c/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/07-27-2021.csv

As per other sources for Japan overall, the deaths are 15 or 14. Other Sources: https://covid19.who.int/region/wpro/country/jp https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/japan/

Please check and confirm the github data.
