covidregionaldata is an R package that is used to provide subregional data for Rt estimates produced each day (https://epiforecasts.io/covid/). Due to developer time being limited, and the majority of the current focus being on EpiNow2, covidregionaldata is lacking on going support.
A thorough review based on the JOSS checklist would help identify issues and suggest improvements. Ideally this review would be coupled with fixing any major issues identified.
[impact: This package is used to support subregional reproduction number estimates that are used routinely by organisations such as the WHO and multiple governments. Providing reliable data is crucial to this pipeline. ]
