Get test positive / negative counts for counties.

mikelehen opened this issue · comments

We should be able to get case counts for some counties, but it looks like right now we don't.

E.g. WA reports case counts for all counties, but if I look up King County (fips 53033), we have no data:

$ curl -s https://data.covidactnow.org/snapshot/153/us/counties/53033.OBSERVED_INTERVENTION.json | python -mjson.tool | grep Tests

        "cumulativePositiveTests": null,
        "cumulativeNegativeTests": null,

We should figure out where we can get the data and then plumb it through.

Data is available here:
https://github.com/covid-projections/covid-data-public/blob/master/data/cases-cds/timeseries.csv

Unfortunately it is not reported / available for WA. But is for some counties eg. 'San Diego County'

Yeah, my example was bad (sorry!). It looks like Washington is only reporting positive cases, not negative. 😞
