Death and recovered data issue about li

[cristipp]

I stumbled upon https://covid19tracker.health.ny.gov/views/NYS-COVID19-Tracker/NYSDOHCOVID-19Tracker-Fatalities?%3Aembed=yes&%3Atoolbar=no&%3Atabs=n, showing fatalities per NY county.

NY fatality data is perhaps the most interesting data out there right now, as it offers a lower bound of what everyone else can expect. I would love to have it sourced via coronadatascrapper. [Edit:] Alas, it's a Tableau viz, with no obvious scrapping / download capability.

What file?

timeseries.csv has no death data for New York state. The last relevant line is:

"New York, United States",state,,,New York,United States,19453561,42.762,-75.809,https://health.data.ny.gov/api/views/xdss-u53e/rows.csv?accessType=DOWNLOAD,county,America/New_York,213779,,,,526012,,,,2020-04-15

In the timeseries.csv file mainly for New york ( including all counties ) the total number of death and recovered case is reported as 0.

Deaths by borough isn't included in the data source currently used to retrieve cases and tested. It sounds like it's handled by a different department, hence published separately. 🤷‍♀️

They are is however included in daily PDFs available here: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-data.page#download

https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/imm/covid-19-daily-data-summary-deaths-04182020-1.pdf

The result from pdftotext looks pretty reasonable!

Staten Island and Unknown don't make the cut but they're the last 4 values.
