Since July, my team at @cmudelphi has been tracking the dropping case fatality rate, deciphering what share of the drop might owe to actual drops due to treatment (vs testing, younger infectees, etc). Drops of 55-60% appear plausible! Learn more here:https://delphi.cmu.edu/blog/2021/01/28/unpacking-the-drop-in-covid-19-case-fatality-rates/ …

I probably have a lot of stupid questions about the article, based on things I noticed in the U.K. Are we sure reported cases are a true representation on the number of cases? More how reliable is the data to begin with? (We had issues with data reliability in the U.K.).
In the HFR definition, shouldn’t we be looking at excessive deaths? And factor # of deaths caused by people who’s treatments or surgeries were delayed. Wouldn’t that give a truer representation? (Not relying on the # of reported cases; which have their own uncertainty.)

Maybe it’s a really stupid point. It was an issue in the U.K. gov reporting. It turned out the # of deaths were significant higher than what was being reported. Independent assessors were able to figure out a more accurate representation by looking at excess deaths.

These are important and subtle points but not accessible via the available data. We might hope that in countries with more standardized electronic medical records at the national level we could get a handle on these more subtle issues.
