What we do not know

Measured against a declared scope of 12 countries, curated by hand, in three sections that do not add up.

These figures have known challenges — see Known challenges

These figures date from August 9, 2026 (85 days ago). They are more than a week old: the aggregate refresh has not been run since. It is not the portal that is behind, it is the data it serves.

The grid declares 12 countries of the 42 the corpus documents, and 28 topics of 3463. An empty cell says there is nothing for that pair WITHIN THIS SCOPE — not that there is nothing.

1. Coverage

measurable today — observation counts, unqualified · Gold-tier counts — the full corpus holds more

Diseases

a condition a person has

37 covered · 36 no recent data · 23 period unknown · 156 no data · 252 cells in this section

+ 10,430 with no national scope — valid evidence whose scope is supra-national or outside the geographic perimeter — "11% of maternal deaths in sub-Saharan Africa" never had a country to lose. Counted separately, never added to the cells.

The three sections do not add up: a disease is a condition a person has, an indicator is a measure over a population. No cross-section total is offered — search and filters, however, span everything.

2. Indicators

not measurable today — instrumentation pending

Saying “a prevalence is missing” requires recognising a prevalence when present. The corpus cannot: only 9 % of percentage values are true disease prevalences, the rest mixes test sensitivities, cure rates and genotype frequencies. These rows await the measure_type field.

  • PrevalencependingIndétectable aujourd'hui : 9 % seulement des valeurs en numeric_unit='%' sont de vraies prévalences de maladie.
  • IncidencependingNécessite de distinguer incidence, prévalence et taux d'attaque — impossible sans measure_type.
  • MortalitypendingConfondue avec létalité et mortalité proportionnelle dans le texte des claims.
  • Vaccination coveragependingSignal lexical très faible : ~129 claims sur 72 932 mentionnent un terme de couverture vaccinale.
  • Treatment accesspendingSignal lexical très faible : ~102 claims. Le corpus documente des états de santé, presque pas l'action publique.

An inherited location means the country comes from the study context, not the claim. These observations count, with lower confidence — knowing it is better than not.
