All,

We've just pushed an update that integrates data from an additional source that includes state and county data (https://coronadatascraper.com/#home). So state and county data is back now. Please refresh the page and unselect "Show only countries" to see them again.

Indeed there seems to be some bad interaction between our Javascript code and other code already on your site. We are working on an update that makes our code a little more robust and versatile, but until then I agree it seems best to just hide those buttons, which is easy. Just add the following CSS definitions to your .css file or header:

#bibbase_header {
  display: none;
}

Please let me know if you have any other issues setting things up.

no worries!

That's right (see above).
> JHU has temporarily dropped that data (US states and counties). We expect this to come back in the next day or so.

We actually just fixed a bug in the spread rate calculation. It now does what we intended, namely provide the increase-per-day as a percentage of total cases. So for instance 10% spread rate means that tomorrow the total number of cases would be 10% higher than today. To make this rate a little less noisy we show a weighted average over the last four days.

Acceleration rate is simply today's spread rate minus yesterday's spread rate (in absolute percentage point), so a 1% acceleration rate means today's spread rate was 1 higher than yesterday (e.g., 11% vs. 10%).

Yes, you are right. JHU has temporarily dropped that data (US states and counties). We expect this to come back in the next day or so.

No worries! Let me know if you run into any other issues.

Yes, BibBase doesn't understand Latex completely, only some of it's commands. Links to papers should be out in a url field (for details see here). For to-be-published papers we recommend using the to-be-correct bibtex entry type, in your case @article, and making the note read "To appear." or similar. Does that work for you?

Great suggestion! This was easy to fix and is now implemented and deployed.

Thanks!

OK, so after a lot of digging and testing with different tools I found that your server requires its requestors to send a 

'Connection': 'keep-alive'

header. Without it, it will drop the connection after some TCP packets manifesting in errors like "ConnectionResetError: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer". So the abstracts only really matter in so much as they increased the file size beyond that limit.

I've just pushed an update to bibbase.org that makes sure that header is no included in all bibtex file requests and your original URL with the abstracts (papers.bib) is working now.

Thanks a lot for reporting. While most servers don't just hang up on requests, it is possible that some other users have been affected by this issue as well. Much appreciated!
