Methodology Note

This rolling monitor aggregates public reporting, official public-health updates, and source metadata. Official surveillance dashboards remain the authority for final counts, line lists, and cleaned outbreak chronologies.

Counts may differ across sources because reporting lags, suspected versus confirmed definitions, retrospective case finding, laboratory turnaround, and duplicate publisher coverage can all move faster than cleaned surveillance data.
