For this week's , we're looking at healthcare efficiency in the USA 👩‍⚕️ I wanted to create a very minimalist data-art plot, with tooltips that give more information 💬

A square tile map of the United States shows how timely and effective emergency medical care is for stroke symptoms. Each square represents a U.S. state, shaded in varying tones of purple to indicate the percentage of stroke patients who received brain scan results within 45 minutes of arrival, between April 2023 and March 2024. The national average is 66%. A tooltip highlights New Mexico with 41%, noting this is below the national average. Data is from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the graphic is by @nrennie.

@mzedp South Carolina is 78%. Washington DC is the very low one with 26%.

(I might add some state labels to the static version as well...)
