czech-covid-db

I started this project on 19.3. 2020. I wanted to make a COVID-19 visualisation website of czech data, but there wasn't a open dataset for CZ. I didn't want to manually write the numbers into a spreadsheet everyday, so I came with a solution: make a script that will check the wikipedia page in a regular time period. If it detects a change, it saves it as a record by appending a row to the CSV tables.

On 28.3., an official open dataset was released

But it doesn't have everything as i would need. So I made a new script that parses data from wikipedia (into the repo root dir) and also from the official page into new CSV tables in the uzis dir.
