Preliminary results from German serological study of exactly the kind we need (N=509 so far) https://t.co/BOvAAugrEI reveals that 14% of sample had antibodies for COVID19 & an additional 2% had current infection. Death rate of 0.37% found (I'm not sure yet if this is IFR or CFR).

Preliminary data from a new study in Heinsberg, in the area of Germany worst affected by COVID-19, finds that 14% of people surveyed had evidence of past infection (n~500), and 2% of current infection.

Committee found given the lack of host immunity globally, the reduction in transmission efficiency due to higher ambient transmission and humidity may not lead to a significant reduction in #COVID19 spread https://t.co/tVmJSrmvTn

This report by @MRC_Outbreak (https://t.co/90MZAkAfjW), estimates total number of infections in different European countries based on observed cases and deaths, generally estimating between 1% and 15% of the population infected. 7/9

"5G masts cause/spead coronavirus" is right up there for obvious batshit nuttery with "the Earth is flat" and "women have penises".

Interesting graphic provided by Dr. Michael Osterholm demonstrating impact of #COVID19 in the #UnitedStates. On Feb 20th this was not even in the top 60 causes of death in the country and by tomorrow will likely be number one. (That is 44 days)

This Bloomberg story has already made the rounds but just sharing the link. I guess I know what reporters will ask the Chinese foreign ministry at the daily briefing this afternoon.

BRUSSELS, April 1 (Reuters) - Barely a month before Europe embarked on a scramble for masks, ventilators and testing kits to fight coronavirus, governments told Brussels their healthcare systems were ready and there was no need to order more stocks, EU documents show.

Tonight #DeborahBirx stated that models anticipating large-scale transmission of COVID-19 do not match reality on the ground. Our modeling (done by @StephenKissler based on work with @ctedijanto and @yhgrad and me) is one of the models she is talking about.

Bangkok Post: The latest announcement by the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand on March 19 requires travellers from all over the world to present health certificates for flying into Thailand. The requirements are different for foreigners and Thai nationals #COVID #Thailand

@jselanikio I just checked for Switzerland. Am I missing something?

Pop : 8’570´000
Active : 4’840 - 51 - 15 = 4’774
Active cases for 100’000 = 55.7

For some perspective on #COVID19 here are six world regions at the same scale
