Data are updated Monday - Friday.
- From 2022-07-07 onwards, only confirmed cases for Brazil will be reported
⚠️ From 2022-07-11, all data files (latest.csv
,timeseries-*.csv
) will have cases from the current outbreak, and from countries where MPXV is endemic. The lists will be distinguished by the first letter of the ID, which will be of string type: N denoting cases from the current outbreak (equivalent to the current list), and E for cases from endemic countries.
This repository contains dated records of curated Monkeypox cases from the 2022 outbreak (April - ), a data dictionary, and a script used to pull contents from a spreadsheet into JSON and CSV files.
The script is intended for use by the curation team and supporting engineers. It requires access to the relevant Google Sheet, and a Google Cloud service account.
The data dictionary is located in the root directory of this project. It contains information about columns/fields in the data sets.
The archives folder contains dated JSON and CSV files. They are currently uploaded manually; regularly and automatically updated data sets live in an (currently private) S3 bucket.
There is also a daily briefing report generated from this data at https://www.monkeypox.global.health
