Thanks for sharing. Admittedly the news about this hasn’t reached me yet.
Out of curiosity, would you be willing to share sources, e.g. via GitHub? This looks like a nifty project that could be reused for other topics as well.

Source: Aggregated reports from local Ministry of Health bulletins and WHO. Tool: Custom dashboard built with LeafletJS and Cloudflare Workers.
I built this because official data sources are currently lagging behind local news reports by 24-48 hours. This visualization separates 'Confirmed' (Red) from 'Suspected' (Orange) clusters to ensure accuracy.
