Impact of Adjustment for Differential Testing by Age and Sex on Apparent Epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Ontario, Canada

2023-08-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Surveillance of communicable diseases typically relies on case counts for estimates of risk, and counts can be strongly influenced by testing rates. In the Canadian province of Ontario, testing rates varied markedly by age, sex, geography and time over the course of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We applied a standardization-based approach to test-adjustment to better understand pandemic dynamics fro...
