I am using a COVID-19 API (https://api.covidactnow.org/v2/counties.json?apiKey=) that records various information like number of cases and deaths in each county in USA. In my React Native app, I retrieved the user's location, and more specifically, the user's county, state and country. In this case, I have stored the user's county name in countyName
. I'd like to fetch the specific cases and deaths from the JSON file depending on what is countyName
is. I have a snippet of one county in the JSON file below. I was thinking I could go into the index of the array and in the actuals, and then fetch the cases and deaths.
