Description
Challenge:
- compare different percents of observations %
- how are they different in the number of infections estimated?
Discussion:
- what are the implications of this change?
Examples:
- how to estimate the observation % of a given surveillance system? Look further into How can we estimate the % of observations from a given surveillance system or in a certain outbreak response context? epiforecasts/EpiNow2#636
- what factors, actions or changes affect the observation % during an outbreak?
- Is the test positivity rate a way to measure this change? Is this an example of sampling bias affecting Rt estimates? In Pitzer et al, 2021 they adjust by the percent of individuals testing positive.
