This is similar to i2-wustl/covid19-visualization#5 The goal here is to draw a box that will be used to update charts in real-time, but when the user releases the mouse click, the box will disappear. I envision it will be used for very rapid inspection of the data.

The user workflow is: 1) The user will click a button on the left side bar to active "inspection box drawing" mode 2) The user will then mousedown on the map to define a corner of the box 3) The user will mouse drag to expand the box. Any patient points in the box will be highlighted to show they are in the selection (add a border probably). 4) The user will mouseup to delete the box. 5) The user will click the button from 1) to deactivate "inspection box drawing" mode

Now that the other features exist, I don't see this being very useful.
