lastlocalcase-sg - Last Local COVID-19 Case in Singapore

A webpage showing the number of days since the last local COVID-19 case in Singapore.

This project is no longer supported as Singapore is no longer aiming for 0 cases.

Why did I make this?

I simply made it because I like streaks and there wasn't a easy place I could find that told me how many days we've had in Singapore since our last COVID-19 case.

How does it work?

Unfortunately MoH doesn't have an API for their daily COVID-19 updates. I simply scrape the data hourly from this site: https://www.moh.gov.sg/covid-19/past-updates

Useful endpoints

I've included some useful endpoints in case you want to use the data yourself.

Lightweight JSON

A lightweight JSON response with the number of days since the last case and when the last case was detected.

URL: https://lastlocalcase.sg/json

Usage:

{
    "streak": 2,
    "streak_start": "01 Apr 2021"
}

Raw data

The raw JSON data used to populate the data on the site.

URL: https://lastlocalcase.sg/cases.json
