You have to "apply" to get the data. But that is just a formality -- even ...

It sounds like you're looking for a line listing. There are no case data available for this outbreak, but like Skram said, I collect and maintain data from various sources on github. Sierra Leone and Liberia release some case data on the province/county level; Liberia's data is quite good. The WHO used to include town names for Guinea, but it has since ...

A few thoughts:
For a simple and down to the point description, Brian's suggestion of MedlinePlus' Web Services is a good start however if you do a search such as http://wsearch.nlm.nih.gov/ws/query?db=healthTopics&term=Levodopa you'll notice that it returns generic information about Parkinkson's disease and not this more appropriate page at http://www....

Not sure if my list is better (or worse), because I think it has a lot to do with Andrew's question about national/state levels. If Andrew says it's cool, I'll just have him update his answer with these links:

Let's try to follow the sources one by one:
Trust for America's Health has obesity ranks (sense probably inverted compared to the graphic) and the proportion (%) of obese people per state, directly linked from their homepage.
U.S. Census American Community Survey should have this data. They have per-state transport mode usage statistics.
Streetsblog is both ...

Extracting data from Wikipedia infoboxes will not be necessary anymore in the not-too-distant future: The people at Wikipedia are currently working on a new project called Wikidata.

Update: In response to your updated question about EAV, some of the datasets below may prove helpful. If you're looking for fairly large datasets where information in certain categories is relatively sparse, the BRFSS data may prove helpful. Otherwise, the other datasets may or may not serve your purpose.
I've used the data from the CDC's Behavioral Risk ...

As noted, there is no official public version of the file, because at this time the NTIS only provides it to subscribers.
As for parsing the file, I made a schema compatible with csvkit's in2csv utility. The schema can be downloaded from https://github.com/JoeGermuska/ffs/blob/master/us/ssa/death_master_file.csv

Your question is so general it's hard to be sure I'm answering it correctly. More detail would be quite helpful. Here's a stab, though:
If you're looking for datasets that are already open and are fairly standard social science data, I would look at what ICPSR holds. They have several datasets, in particular this one, contributed by Jens Ludwig at UChicago.

The NIH has published the UMLS database, which consists of more than 7 million concepts, diseases and symptoms. It's a very wealthy resource. The license is pretty permissive if you are working in the United States. Check it out on the UMLS website. It's completely free and curated by the National Library of Medicine.

At this point Wikipedia will have most of the information but not yet machine readable. For a broad data-request on global lockdowns of varying degree, and for an ongoing event, I can't image a machine readable dataset yet.

One example would be using school closures, for which there is a ...
