Bermuda
I suggest that the row for Bermuda is removed, since it is not s country. Jens Ahlström (talk) 10:07, 30 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Fair point. A number of territories should be removed in that case, including Palestine. There is no such country.2A02:2454:985E:8900:7C32:8FE7:565:2782 (talk) 21:37, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

2021 world bank map is incorrect
Look at Brazil. The chart lists its lofe expectancy as 77 years, but it's shaded in light green for 73 years. 201.26.161.98 (talk) 09:47, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

World Bank Covid Impact deltas are incorrectly calculated for Brazil. (Corrected)
The following errors have been corrected.

Brazil's life expectancy figures are as follows:

2014: 74.31

2019: 75.34

2020: 74.01

2021: 77.25

COVID-19 Impact for 2014 - 2021 states −1.56. This is incorrect. 77.25 - 74.31 = 2.94 (not -1.56)

COVID-19 Impact for 2019 - 2021 states −0.59. This is incorrect. 77.25 - 75.34 = 1.91 (not -0.59)

Applying the same math to other countries yields correct results.

This is not the first apparent error that severely misrepresented Brazil's figures for the worse. This article was either created or edited with the intention of smearing Brazil's numbers. 200.206.250.167 (talk) 18:14, 8 June 2024 (UTC)


 * This has been corrected. Ferrazf8 (talk) 18:21, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Also corrected 2020 - 2021 delta for Brazil.
 * Brazil's life expectancy figures are as follows:
 * 2020: 74.01
 * 2021: 77.25
 * Stated: −1.26. Actual: 3.24
 * 77.25 - 74.01 = 3.24 (not -1.26) Ferrazf8 (talk) 18:25, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

What's the easiest way to update this table? (other than manually...) a455bcd9 (Antoine) (talk) 10:07, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
