Cool site, but can you fix the numbers for Virginia? Currently shows only 19 confirmed infections, but e.g. on [1] it's 604. Spot checked some other states and the others look correct.

Yeah, I've seen that Virginia's numbers are strange. I'm just using the data from the Covid Tracking Project[1], and they seem to be scrubbing the data pretty well, but for some reason they haven't gotten Virginia's right.

I'm trying to not source the data myself, since they seem to have a good methodology that they generally follow. I'll ping them and see if that have an explanation.

Another issue is that I need the historical daily data for Virginia since the site is showing the time series, so I will have to find that specific information too.

Thanks for checking out the site, and stay tuned for some improvements to it.

Virginia's data has been fixed now.

I was also able to hack together a mobile version of the site this weekend, so you might check that out too, although the desktop version makes it easier to compare states.

Same for Maryland. Current number tested is much higher.
