Not sure if it something wrong with what I am doing but I seem to have lost the ability to get US State based timelines from the API?

FYI, this is inconsistent at the source, making it a source-level issue. The source changed their data structure for US as a special case. @CSSEGISandData/COVID-19 accumulated over 100 new issues overnight because of this dramatic change...

my comment in #164

Additional context: they changed it to where they're reporting on the county level, which is a great thing for analyzing the data, but not so great for backward-compatibility

Right, but is there still a way to get state level #s?

JHU has decided to not track state-level anymore, and focus on country. CSBS provides all the way down to county-level. However, it is U.S. exclusive and doesn’t offer other countries.

“v2/locations?source=csbs”. It does not support timelines either.

From what I see the JHU daily reports still show individual states and counties. Couldn't the timelines be built from that? https://github.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/blob/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/03-23-2020.csv

@fsa317 given their recent announcement, I am confident they won’t for much longer.

I think we have lost the ability for all timelines. Or rather, asking for JHU with timelines yields an empty result.

You are correct, fixing it now. @jwillis0720

EDIT: it’s working again.
