Modelling Coronavirus Mortality and Implications on Population Dynamics in the Absence of VaccinationPast Publications
The reported global figures of Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases and fatalities most probably underestimate the magnitude of the pandemic, as coverage and efficiency in screening and testing for COVID-19 vary from country to country. Inappropriate interpretation of official COVID-19 figures could misinform decision makers in the private and public sectors and consequently undermine effective intervention and management of COVID-19.
