Implications of this study (50-85x prevalence) are fundamentally incompatible with real world NYC data - 12199 deaths / 8.4 million. Even if 100% of NYC were infected that’s 0.14% IFR as an absolute floor.https://twitter.com/Farzad_MD/status/1251203644306923520 …

4/ This has huge implications
if there are 50x as many infections as diagnosed cases (and Santa Clara test availability has been as good or better than anywhere in US) then the infection fatality rate is tiny.
If inflate 50 deaths there x 2, CFR ~ 0.12-0.2%
flu territory
