Estimating geographic variation of infection fatality ratios during epidemics

Estimating geographic variation of infection fatality ratios during epidemics

Objectives: We aim to estimate geographic variability in total numbers of infections and infection fatality ratios (IFR; the number of deaths caused by an infection per 1,000 infected people) when the availability and quality of data on disease burden are limited during an epidemic.
