Question 1

Why do I only see some countries?

Accepted Answer

We list countries that currently have at least one active signal. That way each link leads to real content, not empty pages.

Question 2

Why does the map sometimes say a location is approximate?

Accepted Answer

Some official sources only name a country or broad region. When that happens, OutbreakThreat still plots a useful map point but marks it as approximate so you know it is not street-level precision.

Question 3

What does "official" mean on OutbreakThreat?

Accepted Answer

Official signals are tied to a primary publisher such as a national health agency, WHO Disease Outbreak News, or a state health department notice. We still expect you to read the original page for full context.
