TSLA will win
Here's an analysis of case underreporting by country. I've posted this before, but it looks like they've updated their results with plots of % reporting over time for many countries.
Looks like the US is at about 20% reporting (which is a little higher than I thought, but just within my private confidence interval - implies about 2 million US cases - so maybe keeping deaths below 50k is possible, if we are perfect...???)
Using a delay-adjusted case fatality ratio to estimate under-reporting
I'm not getting a clear picture of their definition of what they call "baseline CFR". Is it the IFR, or the CFR that would result from testing all symptomatic cases, or something else?
EDIT: Currently the percentage of positive results, as far I understand, is 40% in some regions, and 25% in some other regions. That indicates a lower test coverage than some time ago when it was 14%. This percentage is a different ratio and doesn't directly correspond to the ratio of "20% reporting" percentage, but it indicates that it is quite low.
