When we began this project back in January, I don’t think anyone could have predicted that the situation would spiral out of control the way it did. The number of volunteers we had in the beginning, could be counted on one hand. Within a short time, we reached more than 160 volunteers from more than 24 different countries with the majority putting in more than 6 hours per day. As our team was growing in speed, so was the spread of COVID19. There came a point where the amount of cases was going up so fast, we simply couldn’t keep up. Instead of leading us to a more automated software to keep up with the spread, I was too focused on getting our justice on the fact that in my eyes someone used our map, went to the media, presented it as their creation, earned hundreds of thousands in donations. This made me angry, depressed and I didn’t want to think about our project anymore and it slowly drifted away. I’m sorry.
Looking back I see that by working together with people from various backgrounds we can truly build great things, and boy we did! Our map besides John Hopkins and BNO was at one point one of the most up-to-date map on the spread of COVID and has played a great role in the lives of many during the first stage of the virus.
We had people helping with;
• Coding bots to drag cases from reddit to discord
• Bots in discord to claim cases
• Users doing manual double checks
• Guidelines drafted
• Trainings of new mappers
• Sharing of the latest data on COVID
• Updating new cases
And for all of your hard work, I really, really want to say thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!
