+## Abstract
+
+National dataset of Ebola in Guinea (2021) - infections, recoveries, deaths, hospitalized, active cases, contact cases and gender data (if available). This dataset is a Pivot Table of the subnational data available on our HDX page.
+
+Gender data is not available anymore. The architecture of this dataset might change over time, to remove gender data. If you have any information about Ebola in DRC, please let us know at org.hera@gmail.com.
+Update frequency : when new data is available.
+
+Each row in this dataset represents country-level aggregates. Data was last updated on HDX on 2025-04-10. Geographic scope: **COD**.
+
+*Curated into ML-ready Parquet format by [Electric Sheep Africa](https://huggingface.co/electricsheepafrica).*

+
+## Curation
+
+Raw data was downloaded from HDX via the CKAN API and converted to Parquet. Column names were lowercased and standardised to snake_case. Common missing-value markers (`N/A`, `null`, `none`, `-`, `unknown`, `no data`, `#N/A`) were unified to `NaN`. 1 exact duplicate rows were removed. The dataset was split 80/20 into train and test partitions using a fixed random seed (42) and saved as Snappy-compressed Parquet.

+
+## Limitations
+
+- Data originates from HERA - Humanitarian Emergency Response Africa and has not been independently validated by ESA.
+- Automated cleaning cannot correct for misreported values, definitional inconsistencies, or sampling bias in the original collection.
+- Refer to the [original HDX dataset page](https://data.humdata.org/dataset/democratic-republic-of-the-congo-ebola-2021-cumulative-cases-national) for the publisher's own methodology notes and caveats.
