We are using this approach to scrape the COVID-19 data in Switzerland.

https://github.com/openZH/covid_19

There is a common runner script and a matrix configuration to run this script for each Swiss canton (see https://github.com/openZH/covid_19/blob/master/.github/workf...).

The scrapers report errors to our slack channel and we even have workflows to deactivate/re-activate a single scraper, since it's common that one fails and we need to fix it (to stop spamming the slack channel with error messages).
