[BUG] Reported from pilot: Missing age cell case not counted #310

Open tinneuro opened 4 months ago

tinneuro commented 4 months ago

Describe the Bug Bug report from piloting country:

While running the tool we noticed that if a case has age missing (age cell is blank) then it isn’t counted as a case in the tool.

For example, the excel included 39 outbreak cases in a specific county for a specific week. After running the tool (filter outbreak status “yes”; strata county, age_group), the signal was generated for 38 outbreak cases.

Could this be solved by labelling missing age as “unknown” ?
