I was tracking the data from JH and they were obviously working with China early because they had China's data available right away and they didn't bother to consider any sources except certain government ones at the onset even though they had a GitHub. I tried to track it but it was very clear after they kept changing the format that they wanted to focus on specific narrative in the media, but the data set was not concerned with accuracy because they were changing their stats tracked at a couple points.

They stopped updating a lot of data after a while and they made it look like US was outbreaking more but they just kept narrowing the data sets to more locations in the US but no where else around the globe.
