How can I copy latest data of Corona-virus cases from worldometers.info using a MATLAB code?

Is there any simple way to copy data from a table given on https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ website link?

Also, there are several other datasets available as projects on Github with their sources mentioned that are updated live to help researchers. i would request you to also explore those possibilities to accelrate your research for the cause. An example of such is following

hope this is valuable.
