Even the Danish IFR estimate (based on blood donor data) for <70yo is double that, at 0.08%https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.24.20075291v1 …

As you know IFR also isn't
#justonenumber. For example, we can expect places with better data and testing/good death recording etc. to systematically have better early detection, mitigation, and treatment than places that do not (like much of the US). -
In other words (as you know, and the study authors may not?), variation in
#covid deaths in different studies has to do with not just data differences (our map of the world), but differences in treatment, demographics, etc. in the underlying reality.

I don’t have a lot of fancy letters after my name and I get this. Blows my mind: bad info tweeted out. Then re-tweeted, without context, ad infinitum, confirming for many their bias as they become willing victims. The replies are depressing. Hang in there guys; some of us learn

I still want to know how good the testing is in these studies. If 5% are false positives and you test the entire population the false positives could overwhelm the other numbers and give terrible data. I haven’t seen any study account for this.
