Global between-countries variance in SARS-CoV-2 mortality is driven by reported prevalence, age distribution, and case detection rate 2020-06-02 .txt text/plain 3604 216 59 Objective: To explain the global between-countries variance in number of deaths per million citizens (nDpm) and case fatality rate (CFR) due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The derived explanators age-adjusted infection fatality rate (IFRadj) and case detection rate (CDR) were estimated for each country based on a SARS-CoV-2 model of China. (9) Studies suggest that the reported number of cases per million citizens (nCpm) is probably lower than the true number of infected individuals, and that this contributes to the varying CFR between countries.(5,6) CFR appears higher than the true infection fatality rate (IFR), i.e. the true proportion of individuals with a SARS-CoV-2 infection who will die in the population regardless of whether they are confirmed or not. The aim of this study was to test two mathematical hypotheses that explain the global between-countries variance in SARS-CoV-2 mortality expressed as nDpm and CFR on real data. ./cache/cord-330338-i6ozygkp.txt ./txt/cord-330338-i6ozygkp.txt
