Covid-19 India vs Open Disease
A volunteer-run archive of India's COVID-19 statistics — state- and district-level confirmed/recovered/deceased counts and vaccination totals — served as JSON (v4 endpoints) and CSV from data.covid19india.org. The original api.covid19india.org project and its per-request JSON routes were deprecated in August 2021 in favor of these v4/CSV endpoints; the data itself is a static historical snapshot, last modified October 2025 per the response headers, not a live daily feed. A live GET against data.covid19india.org returns no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, resolving the stored 'unknown' cors to 'no'.
disease.sh aggregates COVID-19, influenza, and general public-health case/vaccination data from Johns Hopkins CSSE, WHO, and other public feeds into a single keyless JSON API, with endpoints scoped by country, US state, or continent plus historical time-series. A live GET against disease.sh/v3/covid-19/all and a live Origin-header probe both return Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, reconfirming the already-stored 'yes'.
