Estimates of COVID-19 Cases across Four Canadian Provinces

Abstract: Les auteurs estiment les taux d'infection par le coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) de la population de quatre provinces canadiennes, de la fi n de mars au début de mai 2020. Dans leur analyse, ils associent les données quotidiennes relatives au nombre de tests effectués et au nombre de cas diagnostiqués au moyen d'une méthodologie grâce à laquelle les données sont corrigées pour tenir compte du caractère non aléatoire des tests. Ils estiment la relation entre l'évolution quotidienne du nombre de tests effectués et d… Show more

“…The argument is based on relating the number of tests and the share of positive tests. A similar approach has been pursued making use of Canadian data (Benatia et al., 2020 ). The problem of estimating the true numbers of COVID‐19 infections has also been discussed from a purely statistical point of view, where the CDR was related to the fatality ratio (Manski & Molinari, 2020 ).…”

“…Recent work (Benatia et al. 2020 ) suggests stark differences in both the levels of population infection rates and trends across provinces. Nonetheless, in the absence of monthly data on local GDP dynamics, our estimates provide a valuable gauge of heterogeneity in provincial growth rates.…”
