WHO: 10% of world’s people may have been infected with virus
The head of emergencies at the World Health Organization said Monday the agency’s “best estimates” indicate roughly 1 in 10 people worldwide may have been infected by the coronavirus — more than 20 times the number of confirmed cases — and warned of a difficult period ahead.

May have been does not mean verified. How many people dose the WHO reckon may have died?Quote:

1: Minimise the infection rate by counting only confirmed cases.

3: Ignore the clear evidence of the huge number of excess deaths almost certainly caused by COVID but not tested and therefore not included in official numbers.
On second thoughts this advice is superfluous. Obviously these techniques are already well known and regularly applied.

Covid is no different but you can only go on what you know. Would it not be reasonable to assume that; if a certain number of deaths had occurred from a certain number of cases, that that might extrapolate across all cases, there being no significant variable?Quote:
