About Covid Proxima
About this site
Covid Proxima is built by Cory Ondrejka as a personal COVID-19 coping mechanism. It is a static site served off of GitHub with no production dependencies. It uses the FetchAPI to pull data from the New York Times on Github. You can fork the repository and run it all locally if you prefer.
If you find an error, get stumped, or think either the code or data is wrong, feel free to create an issue on GitHub. This is a labor of love (and sanity), so it might take me a bit to respond.
Development has been done in VS Code, Chrome, Safari on a MacBook Pro.

Errata
Alaska 2018 Voting Data
Finding freely licensed, per-county (well, per-borough) 2018 election data for Alaska has proven more challenging than I care to solve. The Harvard dataset uses FIPS identifiers that don’t map back to boroughs, so I just made all the Alaskan boroughs vote at the same rate as the state average for 2018 House race, which was 53.08% for Don Young.
