COVID19_cum.csv deletion #9

Closed seabbs closed 3 years ago

seabbs commented 4 years ago

Hi Emma,

We were using this as a historical data source, is there a reason beyond the fact it will no longer be updated that it has been deleted?

seabbs commented 4 years ago

The key factor for us here is that it is by NHS region which matches our other data sources.

Hey Sam, The data is still available. If you go to " https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/#local-authorities" you can download the csv files there.

I'm trying to find a way of downloading them down in an automatic process.

Happy to help you out!

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Thanks - I am pretty sure that data has different regions (as PHE changed format). No problem though we have archived the dataset for future use. Just a shock when running some analysis tonight!

We have some R code in place here ( https://github.com/epiforecasts/NCoVUtils/blob/master/R/get_uk_regional_cases.R) that I think does that.

Thanks

Sam

Hi Sam,

I've sent some emails to Joel about this but didn't hear back- I hope everything is okay.

I've reverted the COVID_cum.csv deletion so please find the file restored. I have not updated it since 13/04. Do note, the data being released by DHSC for English regions is now for the number of cases per day of sampling. What I was collating here was cases reported per day (delayed by testing time, biased by testing capacities etc) which is a metric that is no longer provided. COVID_cum.csv also included data for Scottish cases being reported- do you want me to keep that up to date for you? There are also comparable data for Wales and NI- do you want that too?

Best wishes,

Emma
