New comment by abhi3 in "Prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in Spain: a nationwide seroepidemiological study"

abhi3 — Mon, 06 Jul 2020 19:48:06 +0000

Key points:

1) Seroprevalance of antibodies in just 5% of the population in one of the hardest hit European countries

2) No difference in infection rates based on gender

3) Large variations in seroprevalence based on symptoms:

No symptoms - 2.8%; Several Symptoms - 12.3%; Loss of smell - 40.1%

Actual cases 8x the official count and IFR of just over 1%

This study is the largest yet and weakens the case for the pursuit of herd immunity without vaccines (28k fatalities with an infection rate of just 5%)
