How this score was reached

    2 independent publishers report this event: WHO Africa, ReliefWeb.

  • Structured / instrument evidence0 / 15

    No conflict-event dataset (L1) or geospatial/GEOINT record (L3) has been matched — reporting is narrative only.

  • Traceable citation+10 / 10

    A direct link to the primary reporting is published with the record.

  • Location resolved0 / 8

    The event is not resolved to coordinates; only a place name is held.

  • Analyst verification (L6)0 / 12

    Awaiting analyst desk verification; the record stands as collected.

  • Integrity deductions-10

    Confidence reduced because the originating feed declares the report unconfirmed.

Score is computed from collection metadata (independent publishers, collection layers, citation, geolocation, analyst review). It measures how well the event is corroborated, not how severe it is.
