Domain-specific¶
- Outbreak Underascertainment
- The COVID-19 pandemic provided a large-scale demonstration: pooling 968 seroprevalence studies from 74 countries, Bobrovitz and colleagues found that national seroprevalence estimates implied a median of 18.1 times more infections than the corresponding cumulative reported cases (interquartile range 5.9–38.7), with the ratio varying between regions from 6.7 in South Asia to 602.5 in sub-Saharan Africa
This sourceBobrovitz et al.'s meta-analysis of 968 serosurveys across 74 countries is the large-scale demonstration the sentence describes: national seroprevalence estimates ran a median 18.1 times higher than the corresponding cumulative reported cases (IQR 5.9-38.7), with variation between regions from 6.7 in South Asia to 602.5 in sub-Saharan Africa.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
