Guess the map 14: We mapped our sky before we mapped our Earth

[The_J]

No, not related to money.

 

[Samson]

Something cheery like "Do more people die of drinking (liver sclerosis) or smoking (lung cancer)"?

 

[The_J]

Not exactly, but it's getting closer to the topic .

 

[stfoskey12]

More people dying of heart disease or cancer?

 

[The_J]

No, but dying has to do with the topic.

 

[Samson]

Are we trying to guess two causes of death, and the colours are which take more lives?

 

[The_J]

No, that's not it.
Valid guesses so far: Healthcare policy, dying, and somewhat related the exact causes of death.

 

[Samson]

Is it legal situation of euthanasia?

 

[The_J]

No, that is more complicated.
I think there might be some connections though.

 

[GinandTonic]

Something related to withdrawal of care/ assisted dying?

 

[The_J]

No, but there is some connection there too.

 

[red_elk]

Something about organ trasnplantation?

 

[EnglishEdward]

opting and opting out of organ donations; the default option

 

[The_J]

opting and opting out of organ donations; the default option

....and here we go, this is correct! I don't know anymore where I got the map from, I'll check for the original link when I'm home.

Blue: Opt out
Yellow: Opt in
A big bunch of African countries apparently don't report on organ transplantations (if they happen), so I guess the map is accurate there, although I guess they should have a policy.

Next map up to Edward .

 

[EnglishEdward]

Umm, a dubious victory, I more or less stole the answer off red_elk

Anyway, this map arrived in my in-tray the other week and surprised me.

 

[GinandTonic]

Billionaires?

 

[EnglishEdward]

No, not billionaires.

 

[red_elk]

Related to science, research?

 

[EnglishEdward]

Yes

 

[The_J]

Not nobel prizes or similar?
