    Snippet: In this study, we propose a comprehensive solution to the estimation of mortality from surveillance data during outbreaks [9] . Our findings show that the crude CFR does not necessarily overestimate true mortality. In both settings that we studied, the crude CFR was lower than the model-estimated mortality, showing the importance of bias due to right-censoring at early stages of the epidemic.

    Document: In this study, we propose a comprehensive solution to the estimation of mortality from surveillance data during outbreaks [9] . Our findings show that the crude CFR does not necessarily overestimate true mortality. In both settings that we studied, the crude CFR was lower than the model-estimated mortality, showing the importance of bias due to right-censoring at early stages of the epidemic. The study shows the value of collecting case data according to date of disease onset.
