James Todaros tweet about not finding a consensus on the IFR and current WHO estimates
"April, 2020: My colleagues and I calculated the Infection Fatality Rate (IFR) of COVID-19 to be substantially below 1%.
People said that our estimate was absurd.
July, 2020: The consensus is that the IFR is actually “about 0.6%.” -Chief Scientist, WHO
