Big Local News snapshots this data daily from https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data. This is time series data for U.S. confirmed cases and deaths down to the county level. There are three CSV files released once a day: national-level data, state-level data and county-level data. Each file contains date, county/state name, FIPS code, number of confirmed cases, number of deaths going back to January 21. All data is gathered by New York Times reporters from state and local health departments or official government announcements. The data is updated once a day in the morning, usually around 8 a.m. EDT, with a full day’s worth of data from the day before. Please cite the New York Times as described in the README and check terms of use.
