It turns out this is not an issue with COVID19Py but with the API it pulls data from. According to ExpDev07/coronavirus-tracker-api's [Issue #264](https://github.com/ExpDev07/coronavirus-tracker-api/issues/264), there was an outage and it seems...

Agreed @jdeweese1. In the meantime, API sources have proven to be unstable so maybe it might be time to implement source mirrors support?

#20 looks good, just merged it. https://cvtapi.nl/ also seems to be still available so maybe we could start with these two. In case something happens with the current default mirror,...
