- Enhanced data quality for PAHO Countries: Resolved various early-stage data extraction and processing issues (e.g., encoding inconsistencies, incorrect calendar dates, missing data during manual entry, etc.), primarily relevant to MOH subnational data for PAHO countries.
- Refined naational-level data processing: This release introduces a refined data processing algorithm, specifically enhancing how we build the national-level data. Previously, scenarios might have led to redundant or less optimal data points being included when multiple national-level sources (e.g., weekly and annual counts) were present for the same period. The updated approach now compares and prioritizes these sources, ensuring we select the highest total for a given time period and country.
