The aim of this repository is to provide open government datasets for SARS-CoV-2 related data reported by the Swiss Cantons and the Principality of Liechtenstein. Since Jun 8, 2020 most cantons report case numbers at least once or twice a week. Updates of cantonal case numbers during weekends are infrequent.
