What This Means

QGI found 32,075historical cases where other countries' economic indicators followed a trajectory that subsequently led to a epidemic and pandemic event. Afghanistan's current indicator trajectory matches these historical patterns.

This does not mean Afghanistan will experience epidemic and pandemic. It means the economic conditions that historically preceded such events in other countries are present in Afghanistan's current data. Analysts should examine the underlying evidence and apply domain expertise.

QGI surfaces economically-grounded risk candidates that analysts should examine. Risk tiers reflect historical precedent density, not probability forecasts.
