at the moment the endpoint for https://github.com/NovelCOVID/API is not exactly stable.
a failed fetch request leads to an empty gallery or helix view, which is probably frustrating for first time users.
it also can stop me while working on it.
as a fetch-fallback we could display static data with a big red note that it is outdated due to an API call fail.
