But don't let the number get in the way of the narrative.
Its just an estimate. Worldometers and John Hopkins only count actual cases, but the WHO is basing this particular estimate on studies which have found anti bodies on people who never actually tested positive. But yeh, its a very wild, finger in the air, estimate. They were accused of playing it down, so I guess now they are playing it up. A mate of mine living in NY reckons he got it during their initial outbreak, but because he was "young" and they didn't have the resources, he didn't qualify to get tested. I'm sure there are many others in the same boat.
