Supplementary notes
The Global Health Security (GHS) Index is based on 171 questions, distributed among six categories which consider 37 indicators.
According to the source "The GHS Index benchmarks health security in the context of other factors critical to fighting outbreaks, such as political and security risks, the broader strength of the health system, and country adherence to global norms."
The scale of the scoring is 0 to 100, where 100 = most favorable.
