Fetch Covid-19 data #3

Closed yelloweq closed 3 years ago

yelloweq commented 3 years ago

What kind of data do we need to fetch along side the number of covid cases? Place information? How often do we update it?

IBN5101 commented 3 years ago

1) COVID case should be divided into: current case / recovered / deaths 2) The information for now should be in the scope of UK, maybe starting with the major cities (Birmingham, London) 3) We update it every week + manually. Once we have a solid app, we can increase the frequency to every 3 days / every day.
