How to use organization material¶
- Prefer it for service directories, public campaigns, accommodation resources and patient-priority framing.
- Use peer-reviewed or official regulatory sources for efficacy, diagnosis and safety claims.
- Record conflicts, sponsors and geographic health-system assumptions when using campaign material.
- Avoid treating membership narratives as prevalence estimates.
Dated verification gap¶
On 2026-08-30, a fresh direct HTTPS retrieval of Headache Australia failed with a network-unreachable error. The audit therefore establishes a current verification gap—not organizational inactivity—and the site remains outside the verified table. Six listed sites returned HTTP 200; the National Headache Foundation returned an anti-bot 403 while retaining a public web presence.
Missing coverage¶
This verified set is Anglophone/European-heavy. Future sweeps should prioritize independent organizations in Latin America, Africa, South and East Asia, and multilingual resources, using live checks and the same public-source boundary.
