We are looking for volunteers to help keep the map updated. Dr. Niman has been doing this to date, but more and more of his time is being taken up with the viral sequence work. He needs help with the map, and I feel that there is a lot of volunteer potential among the people on this board. We would really appreciate your help.
The work consists of gathering the data from the sources specified by Niman and entering new cases and fatalities into the map database using an online data entry form. It does take a little time to do, but most states are not updating very frequently right now, so it will probably start off pretty slowly. I will work with each volunteer to get them started and help with problems.
We are going to start with the US states. I will work with Dr. Niman to determine what needs to be done to update each state, and then post on this thread to ask for volunteers for that state.

Count me in :good:

I will be happy to help with any State/States.

Can we also keep up with the hotspots around the world, too?
