The problem EPINFO solves

Through this project, we intend to bring you the data and trends related to the past and ongoing epidemics of the world. Being a product under the domain Heath Tech, this project majorly solves the problems relating to anonymity in epidemiological studies. It also provides a platform for users to showcase experiences and information too.

Challenges we ran into

While making this application, a lot of data was required. Getting appropriate APIs for various epidemics was a difficult job as most APIs for old epidemics are now obsolete and hence not easily available. Therefore, an alternative to that was predefined datasets. Cleaning all the data using pandas to get them in the desired format was a daunting job too.
