So what if estimated infections for COVID19 are wildly inaccurate?
That's why we run large-scale high-quality serology studies. In our paper, we only included high-quality studies, for precisely this reasonhttps://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.07.23.20160895v4 …
Is it also likely, at this stage, that COVID-19 will infect more people as compared to flu, given we have vaccines for the latter? ie. a double-up of both higher IFR, and more infections to apply that IFR to?
