Description
Added a script that provides live Covid-19 statistics of a country by using "covid19-stats", an NPM module to retrieve worldometer's live Covid-19 stats, as well as "prompt-sync" to take input. The former module uses web scraping to obtain real time access to world wide statistical information. Using this script, you can provide the country name as input and get a JsonArray containing latest statistics of the desired country (as listed in worldometers) such as: country, totalCases, newCases, totalDeaths and newDeaths.
