Covid19.Place is an independently run Malaysian website that gathers data from Covid 19 data from all over the world and puts it in a nice and easy to digest layout.

It provided useful life-saving information for Malaysians all over the country.

In a new post today, while announcing the country’s five-digit daily Covid19 case in a Twitter post, the administrators of the site announced that they were 691USD short of the amount that they needed to keep the site running and asked the public for help.
The post includes a CIMB account to which you can donate.
