    Document: Assuming homogeneous attack rates across the different age groups, the demographic distribution of cases by age across each location should broadly match the demography of the populations in Wuhan and across the rest of China. The reported age-distribution of cases for both locations show striking deviations from the demographic structure of the Chinese populations. Wuhan, in particular, has noticeably fewer cases in younger age groups, and significant overrepresentation of older age-groups (see Figure 1B in main text). Similar patterns are evident in the age-distribution of cases outside China, but to a lesser extent. We hypothesised that these disparities were a product of under-ascertainment of cases, particularly in younger age-groups where a smaller proportion of infections would be expected to be severe and require hospitalisation.
