Your site is reporting 428 total cases where the official announcement (from Greece's Ministry of Health) mention 331 total cases. The link is a press conference release a couple of hours ago: https://www.moh.gov.gr/articles/ministry/grafeio-typoy/press-releases/6871-enhmerwsh-diapisteymenwn-syntaktwn-ygeias-apo-ton-ekproswpo-toy-ypoyrgeioy-ygeias-gia-to-neo-koronoio-kathhghth-swthrh-tsiodra-15-3-2020 Please let us know about the sources of the total cases you report, or if this is a mistake. An error is understandable as soon as it is corrected. I believe becoming a source of misinformation is beyond your purposes.
