Re: Homologous periods for indicators

 

Thanks Ola, it's a good idea to have this also available as part of
validation rules. However, my immediate need and what organizations dealing
with seasonal epidemics such as WHO and CDC would like to see are charts
with two lines:

The trend of cases and deaths for the current year as compared to the trend
lines for a) the previous year or b) some kind of average for several
previous years. See the attached example.
