comparing iceweasel1 and RKI data #9

it seems to me that your data is overall consistent with RKI with about a day difference. How do you vet out double counting of confirmed cases e.g. across states?

Looking at Berlin only: RKI showing 90 cases at 11.3.2020 (15h) with total cases in Germany : 1567 iceweasel1 showing 58 cases at 11.3.2020 with total cases in Germany: 1616 Is there maybe something to fix? Just wondering and trying to understand, not at all trying to mess with your sources or anything.

RKI is simply publishing the numbers of the previous day possibly.

@iljabek yes, that seems to work for the rest of the world. In Berlin I see something else: According to what you say and RKI being possibly 1 day late, I was expecting it to publish lower numbers than iceweasel1 data, not the other way around.
