1. What % of new cases were on known contact lists at time cases detected? The answer hasn't been made public, but has been ~10% throughout. 2. What % of cases have been discovered as community deaths? If high (& it is), transmissions being missed, discovered after-the-fact.

3. What proportion of individuals who qualify to receive vaccine either refuse or are not found? We hear > 60K vaccinations, but don’t know what % of contacts & high risk persons are reached with vac. 4. What is time from symptom duration to isolation? If too long need to worry.
