Error in ICU data for Spain during the past days

[lhernandez-who]

Hello. It seems like JRC ICU numbers for Spain are significantly higher than those reported in their official website (kindly see table 2 for ICU patients as of 2 July), observing a big spike when compared to the previous week.

Thanks and kind regards,

Dear Lucia thanks for pointing it out. Unfortunately since the beginning Spanish authorities continued to change format and this is the result of yet another change in the format. We have corrected our data Best regards Alessandro Annunziato

Dear Alessandro, Many thanks for the quick fix. It is indeed challenging to keep track of all the websites changes.

The main problem is that we have to rely on a PDF file that can change at any time. For some time they passed to a CSV file and then it was no longer updated. So continuos changes , even of content. For example for long time the ICU entries were provided and few weeks ago it switched to ICU occupancy (entry minus dismissions), as the rest of Europe was providing. However iit is important that it ends, no matter what the format is. Best regards Alessandro On Mon, Jul 5, 2021 at 3:39 PM lhernandez-who ***@***.***> wrote:
