I agree wholeheartedly with their assessment FYI, I don't think you can reasonably calculate the IFR of COVID-19 in Australia from either of the seroprevalence studies released thus far
Apologies, I should say in the original tweet that depending on the prior used they either estimated 0.15% or 0.09% (which would correspond to between ~4-7,000 cases in Sydney)pic.twitter.com/lh6g0wZzTK
And while we can't apply these numbers to the community directly, I think it's still interesting to note that it implies that the vast majority of COVID-19 cases have been captured in NSW by testing/contact tracing (at least 60%!)
Impressive @NSWHealth
They generated two estimates based on their priors, it's true - either 0.09 or 0.15. Main point is that the confidence bounds stayed almost the same!pic.twitter.com/F3hz7ZgvF3
