About the data sources

Corona Data Scraper pulls information from a variety of openly available world government data sources and curated datasets.

Ratings have nothing to do with the accuracy of the data

The ratings for the data sources here are based on how machine-readable, complete, and granular their data is — not on the accuracy or reliability of the information. We’re using a rating system like this because we’re trying to make governments more accountable for their data practices.

Take a look at the code to learn more about how the rating system works.
