This is a working dataset, not a national census. Where South Africa's national register is not yet fully integrated, the count is a partial view and will grow as new sources come online. Facility-level depth (beds, workforce and services) is live for Nigeria and expanding across the continent. Need fuller coverage or depth for South Africa now? It is available via the API.
