Infection fatality ratio for covid-19 in Ontario. Tldr: it’s around 1% after excluding longterm care deaths, same estimate as in many other countries.https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.11.09.20223396v1 …

My chart is not IFR. My chart is deaths per 100k. Flu is total burden in US estimated by CDC, not actual surveillance, and confirmed by other jurisdictions. To me the relative slopes of the curve are more instructive than absolute positions. They're the same in every country.

I don't get the obsession with protecting young kids (or anyone below 50 for that matter) when they are at less mortality risk of COVID than flu and weak evidence to support kids transfer to parents/teachers (as opposed to vice versa)
