0/N #thread 👇I was a bit surprised to find Delhi's high sero-positivity rate (23.48%) in early July, and the low infection fatality rate (IFR) of 0.06%. My curiosity led to this short paper on #COVID-19 in #Delhi.
medrxiv.org/content/10.110…1/N Delhi's IFR of 0.06% is significantly lower than the estimates for China(0.66%),New York(1.45%), France(0.5%), Lombardia (1%),Spain (1.1%) and Geneva(0.64%). One reason to expect this is that COVID-19 impacts the elderly with comorbidities, and India's population is younger.
