Today is the 9th of April, 4:25 pm EST

The map chart is showing date as "World, Apr 08, 2020.

Same issue on both map charts (World and USA).

Thanks in advance for your support on this...

Data is pulled from JHU which is usually a day behind.

Thanks for your quick reply DreamITSoftware...

To be clear, I am receiving the data for the current day, but the map charts are showing the previous date. (Please see attachments)

Strange, maybe something with time-zones. Which time zone are you in?

Thank you for your response and consideration of this issue! 👍

I am in the U.S. Eastern Time Zone (America/New York).

I initially thought that it may be timezone related also. But that wouldn't explain being off by a whole day. I have noticed that the date appears to change to the correct date somewhere between 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm.

I am in Maryland, US EST as well. It says on the GitHub site they update the data around 11:00PM UTC every day. I will be publishing a realtime API for the JHU data soon. It will always update when they update their dashboard. It will rely on the daily feed on github as well as their realtime data.

Just saw your screen shots. I will have a look. We've implemented the dashboard at https://www.impulze.live
