 ### Caveats
 
 * Why are there names in both `english` and `spanish` entries in the names files regardless of language? Synthea distributes names unevenly based on a a US demographic model. See this [issue](https://github.com/synthetichealth/synthea/issues/908#issuecomment-868730712). In order for all names to have equal probability, the hack is to put all names for any language are duplicated under `english` and `spanish` even if there are no English or Spanish names in the names file.
 
 ### Todo
 
-* Use another country code or non-country code.
 * Change other nouns
