Title: Why estimating population-based case fatality rates during epidemics may be misleading Document date: 2020_3_30
ID: embnko1q_25
Snippet: In the next section, we define population-based estimates for mortality ratios, M p (t), and explore how they can be computed using SIR-type models. By comparing M 1 (t) to M p (t), we gain insight into whether population-based metrics are good proxies for individual mortality ratios. We will outline the mathematical differences and additional errors that confound population-level estimates......
