Where the data comes from

Two official Maltese sources feed this portal today, and we are working to add more directorates and units.

Data flows from the Directorate for Health Information and Research and the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Unit into this portal, where it becomes CSV tables, a JSON API and charts. More sources are being added.

Source and attribution

Publications are the work of their authors: the Directorate for Health Information and Research (DHIR), Ministry for Health, Malta, and the Infectious Disease Prevention & Control Unit (IDCU), Health Promotion & Disease Prevention Directorate. This portal is an independent project by Dr Stefan Buttigieg that indexes and re-publishes their open reports as structured data; it is not an official DHIR or IDCU product. Tables outside the Health Interview Survey series are machine-extracted — always check a value against the linked source PDF before citing it.
