Remove the existing keys of care_static_data before proceeding with the loading of static data in redis

Can you tell me where could I locate this issue?

Hello @sainak, may I work on this issue?

Thanks for assigning me. I'll look into it the moment I get off work!

Thanks for the looking out for me, but I'm working on it. In terms of cpu usage and speed, it takes a while for processes to run in the dev container as opposed to outside of it. I'm working on it locally on my fork 😁

I assume the keys that I need to delete only get created when/after the app has been used for some time?

• After make up, there don't seem to be any keys. I found that we had 0 keys by making a python program that takes all the keys.
• I also used the redis-cli and got back an empty array.

With this info, I assume that you'd like me to instead update the app so that every single time we try to load static data from redis, I delete the keys that have "care_static_data" as a prefix?
