For France, it was found that the number of New cases and Death cases as per JHU for the dates were as follows:- 18th May 2022: Daily New cases = 64,016 Death = 80 17th May: Daily New cases = 38,184 Death = 82 Whereas on other sources:

17th May: WHO, New daily cases = 5936 & Death = 126 18th May: WHO, New daily cases = 43727 & Death = 90 17th May: Worldometer, New daily cases = 5936 & Death = 90 18th May: Worldometer, New daily cases = 29995 & Death = 67

Please look into this discrepancy.

The French dataset at https://www.data.gouv.fr/en/datasets/donnees-relatives-a-lepidemie-de-covid-19-en-france-vue-densemble/ which is the one listed in the README is retired, and hasn't been updated since the 17th May. The new dataset is at https://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/synthese-des-indicateurs-de-suivi-de-lepidemie-covid-19/
