Description
https://its-airborne.org/media/aerosol-history-timeline.json is a timeline for "many diseases before C19 were identified as airborne". It'd be great to be able to subset that in load. i could have a page just for Epstein Barr Virus, or the flu. It'd load the same timeline, but quietly subset it before presentation. I could do this in Python of course - generate the subset JSONs and check em in (static site), but it'd be nice if there were a way to do the same that was build in to TimelineJS3.

Research direction
Start in options.html and trace how TimelineJS3 reads the timeline JSON during initial load. Use the aerosol-history JSON as an example while determining how the requested event subset should be selected and applied before presentation; done means a page can load the same timeline and show only the chosen disease-related events.
