Current Covid-19 Data

I have found the definitive .csv source for daily COVID-19 updates if anyone is interested. They're being stored on GitHub in daily sequential files. Here's my PHP code to access the latest:
$date = date('Y-m-d');
$pdate = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($date .' -1 day'));
$curfile = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/" . substr($date,5,5) . "-2020.csv";
// ex: 04-08 which equates to 04-08-2020.csv
if (!file_exists($curfile)) {
$curfile = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID-19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/" . substr($pdate,5,5) . "-2020.csv";
// ex: 04-07 which equates to 04-07-2020.csv
}
This .csv is by U.S. County and I use it here: https://bit.ly/2wopzFc
... and consolidate it for a State view here: https://bit.ly/3dxq8NR
I hope this helps someone out there!
Sources?
Who is updating the csv files?

Hell, maybe it is BS, but I'm a numbers guy and the data is interesting so I figure out how to grab it and let people decide what to make of it.
