The fact that you are pursuing this is admirable. But this whole thing sounds too much like work. Finding opportunities, convincing entrenched stakeholders, accommodating irrelevant feedback, pitching in meetings — this is the kind of thing

So why doesn’t the CDC track it so we know the actual numbers? That would be good information to know. Also the academic article here is simply a response to another academic article supporting the 3rd leading cause of death: https:/&

That would be sharing your phone and password with the police because there is nothing to hide. I’m asking why you’re expecting to be booked by authorities and your phone confiscated for attending a “protest”.

You need a fallback for anything involving joins or column renaming. SQL queries do not return graphs of objects, they return arrays of rows.
