Great idea for a quiz. However, the time period isn't clear. "Before" and "after" what?

One of the caveats says that the data is from 2022/2023. Does that mean the before was 2022 and the after was 2023? I would add the years in the columns like AlmostAGenius said. (If you already did and I commented while you were doing this, please ignore my comment, sorry.)

the data was released in 2022 for 2021 but the website it can be used for 2022 and 2023. I already changed the before and after and i hope you enjoyed the quiz

Interesting. I assume that these decreases, except Tunisia, are because of HIV/AIDS? I agree with the above comment. You should put the column headers as the years that you are taking the data from.

i think you are right hiv/aids is the reason for all of them apart from Tunisia and Seychelles. Botswana undid all the progress it did in the last 5 years becasue of hiv/aids and cholera. I think Seychelles declined beasue of its contraction in economy becasue of covid and tousim taking a hit. I think Tunisia declined becasue of political instability and protests
