Missing updated field #9

Closed leandroparedes closed 4 years ago

Some countries doesn't have the updated field on the /cases endpoint. This are the ones I have noticed:

@leandroparedes great catch! These countries don't have an updated field because there isn't an actual metric for the "All" region for them, it's summed up from all the subregions. Because the subregions are updated at different times, it is impossible to determine when the total data is actually from.

I might be able to just put the most recently updated timestamp in All but I think that won't be accurate.

I guess that makes sense.
