This project retrieves data from the Electric Boat EBLanding COVID-19 Case Report Summary website and plots it in interesting ways. The Susceptible, Infected, Recovered (SIR) model for disease spread is used to project "the curve" at Electric Boat.

Run python3 main.py from your terminal.

main.py is the driver that calls all functions.

scrape.py uses the requests and beautifulsoup libraries to make the http request to the URL and parse the html.

covid_case.py contains a single class that is a template for one COVID-19 case at Electric Boat.

analyze.py contains functions that organize the COVID case data by facility, department, etc. This module also curve-fits an SIR disease spread model to the actual Electric Boat recorded case data.

plot.py plots the data using the matplotlib library.

db.py is currently in testing, and adds COVID case data to a PostgreSQL database.

log.py sets up a logger that logs to covid.log, which is not under version control.
