The last IFR number I saw from CDC was 0.65% back in mid July (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html Table 1). Do you have a more updated number from them?

All the recent studies (really everything I’ve seen since early June) has said the IFR is between 0.64% and 0.66% (https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.11.20098780v1 and https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3635047). It seems like that’s become the overall consensus from researchers around the world, but I could also have missed something.

the last headlines i saw from the cdc was around 0.26% but it changes all the time. the point is it is well under 1% and still falling. We are also getting better at treating. our death rate in ventilators now is around 25% and dropping
