Data Limitations

Some data may not reflect current conditions due to the time needed for collection, verification, and reporting. Differences in data collection methods and reporting practices across providers may impact consistency and comparability. Additionally, the dashboard presents system-level trends and may not capture individual experiences or the full complexity of local contexts.
