@famulare are there any studies comparing dose to dose yet? Not 3 vs 4, with the 4th being a bivalent, but 3 v 3 or 4 v 4 taken at similar dates?
I have a suspicion that the differences will be minor, but I haven't seen any non-inferiority studies yet tackling the issue directly.

Finally made my own box.
Three stage (washable microfiber to carbon filter to HEPA).
Can "attach" to any sized fan through a plastic trash bag.
Can pull apart and collapse through Velcro and tape so portable enough for a carry-on.
Will add a USB powered UVC light next.

<$100 all-in.

Would have to be something like a 3 day doubling time for a month, despite widespread NPIs, and finishes infecting every single person in Guangdong by the end of this week.
This strains credulity.
Both figures are likely to be way off.

Apart from Qingdao, authorities in Dongguang in Guangdong province also said the number of confirmed cases is increasing around 250,000 to 300,000 ...

@gidmk
I'm estimating around as bad as Hong Kong, so 0.2% excess death rate. 90%CI 1.5-4 million dead, 40 million needing intensive care, more than that with long-COVID.

Maybe was inevitable over a long time period, but not this many this fast. Hospital collapse risk.

@halcek @gidmk
There are widely available photos and videos of mass graves, hospitals packed wall to wall, and stories of crematoriums unable to keep up.
Yet, supposedly, only a few people in all of China have died this month, out of 1.4 billion people.

We can maybe trust previous China data, at least 80% or so, but nothing over the past month.
