Can someone please update "Case summary" section edit

Can someone please update the section "Case summary" or just revert it to older format, which will be easy to read (Refer Spanish version page). --Naveen N Kadalaveni (talk) 16:19, 24 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Ignore, Updated that table by referring revision history --Naveen N Kadalaveni (talk) 16:48, 24 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
Comment: It was updated with cumulative count instead of daily new cases count, data is incorrect for the specified template. Hence reverted it to old format, If you feel like using the below template then please update the new cases count for each region and then replace the existing table. --Naveen N Kadalaveni (talk)
Done. Ok to make the switch? Emailsson (talk) 20:05, 24 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
@ Emailsson Sure, Go ahead --Naveen N Kadalaveni (talk) 20:15, 24 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Mistake on Additional deaths edit

Number of 653 additional deaths is incorrect. 553 additional deaths is the correct amount.

Covid-19 recoveries edit

Chile has 186,441 recoveries [1][2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.232.51.215 (talk) 15:48, 19 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

It is not. The government stopped releasing the number of recoveries due to the criticism in the way they catalogued them. [1] --B1mbo (talk) 15:13, 23 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Active cases edit

Hi, I looked into here and the Ministry of Health has a graphic of the active cases that looks different to the one in the articles, specially in June when, remember, they made some changes to the way they counted them. Should we change the information in the graphics of the article to show this information? I think we should as our graphic of the active cases is based on daily reports and looks very unnatural (again, specially in June), and the information provided by the Ministry in the link takes into account other factors to update the past daily cases, giving a more realistic approach to the real number of cases.

I'm not sure if it is correct to change the data currently. Most of the data is based on the daily reports; the only exceptions are the deaths and the vaccination progress, considering in both cases the government has mentioned they are updating actively the numbers (vaccination data is uploaded almost immediately, while deaths have a delay by default given the certificates take a few days to be made). In the case of active and recovered, the numbers are counted using the daily reports and the definition of active and recovered did change -in fact, there was a lot of criticism to that change-. I'm not sure if we should update that data because a) it reflects the change of criteria, and b) then we will have to update all data to the current number. --B1mbo (talk) 02:25, 19 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
