Method and limitations
Method and limitations
No missing value is imputed. Where colour classes are used, their breaks and colours come from the catalogue; source-declared suppression remains missing.
The area mean gives every published geographic area equal weight. It is not weighted by population, exposure or area size.
Cause categories are the publisher's mutually exclusive annual presentation groups. COVID-19 and residual U-code categories are not merged because their published meanings vary by year.
