    Snippet: We use the same estimates for the rate parameters in our individual and population models to compute the different mortality ratios. Note that in general, both the individual mortality probability M 1 (t) and the population-based estimates M p (t) depend on the time of measurement t. By critically analyzing these estimates and another ad hoc "delayed" ratio CFR d , we illustrate and interpret the differences among these measures and discuss how c.....
    Document: We use the same estimates for the rate parameters in our individual and population models to compute the different mortality ratios. Note that in general, both the individual mortality probability M 1 (t) and the population-based estimates M p (t) depend on the time of measurement t. By critically analyzing these estimates and another ad hoc "delayed" ratio CFR d , we illustrate and interpret the differences among these measures and discuss how changes or uncertainty in the data affect them. In section III, we summarize our results and identify a correction factor to transform population-level mortality estimates into individual mortality probabilities.
