Draft: look up countries
Context
For the sign up questionnaire and user profiles, were getting the data for countries and states from: https://web.cvent.com/event_guest/v1/lookups/v1/countries?locale=en
. We use this link because HHMI asked us to match https://www.biointeractive.org/
This data lists USA
instead of United States
or United States of America
which is a usability issue. See feedback from HHMI originally reported in #51 (closed):
Country. I tried typing "United States" to filter down the list to it, but it did not appear. By scrolling I realized it appeared as "USA" in the list. It should probably be "United States" or "United States of America" or respond to both the full wording as well as "USA"
