I see that you already added that for France. I understand that these are somewhat broad qualitative categories, but giving a date context is important. Perhaps just update the whole chart quarterly? When I first saw it I thought "this is great" but when I browsed the popups and realized that each country was based on such widely different data time periods I thought "why bother putting it on a map for comparison?" Thanks for asking! A,

Would your concern be addressed if each country's text balloon included the last-update date? Or am I missing something here? We're eager to improve and would welcome any suggestions.
