@krokkie We are having a scraper issue again. Got this from Hugh Murrell
NICD web-scraper is broken.
A few days ago, The NICD changed the presentation format on its
COVID dashboard and as a result faulty data is getting scraped for
your South African provincial Covid count dataset on github.
Quite a few web apps make use of your dataset. Please can you
ask someone to take a look at the problem
The break occurs between 22-11-2021 and 23-11-2021 in this dataset
and that is when the NICD format changed.

This underlying data was broken, the scrapers worked fine.
As pointed out by others, an improvement would be to add the published "new
cases" numbers. I wanted to add this when I had a gap.
