Methods & caveats

The map uses uploaded county attributes joined by county_fips. The default bivariate view uses bivar_3x3_code, combining D2+ area coverage and D2+ population-exposure bins.

Population-exposure fields are shown as supplied and should be labeled as exposure estimates, not as total county population. Counties not present in the uploaded CSV are drawn with a hatched no-data symbol.
