COVID-19 Vaccine Dashboard

https://github.com/shipupi/vacunas-argentina-covid
This Python app scraps official COVID-19 vaccine information from official sources and populates a PostgreSQL database with this information after some processing. This data is then served in a FastAPI server, to which several endpoints return the processed information.

Some charts with that information are rendered with Altair, including a choropleth graph and several stacked area charts for a percentage of the population with partial or complete vaccination.
