New Plugin: COVID-19 API (04/01/2020)

Hi All,

Just pushed a new plugin for the COVID-19 API. This API lets you access current USA data and has the following calls:

  • States Current Values
  • States Historical Data
  • States Information
  • US Current Values
  • US Historical Data
  • Counties
  • Tracker URLs
  • State Website Screenshots
  • In the press
  • CDC Reported Tests

For a demo, click here:


Or use it to just keep track of the current situation.

Enjoy. :slightly_smiling_face:

Fantastic plug in, thank you for sharing.

Can you please from where you are sourcing the data, and how the grade is determined.

Does this work only for the US? Canโ€™t seem to find how to pull data for other countries

Hi, yes only US data for now.
