Noted COVID-19 projection model estimates 20-50% detection rate

COVID-19 project believes infections estimates should include all infected individuals of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, not just those that took a COVID-19 test and tested positive. As of January 2021, they estimate the true number of infected individuals in the US to be roughly 2-4x higher than the reported cases (20-50% detection rate). See our writeup, Estimating True Infections, for a more detailed look into this subject. Because not all currently infected individuals are infectious, they recommend dividing the “currently infected” estimate by 2-4 to get a sense of the number of currently infectious individuals.

Glucagon-Like Peptide–Based Therapies and Longevity: Clinical Implications from Emerging Evidence

Glucagon-like peptide–based therapies are increasingly used for weight management and glycemic control, but their potential impact on long-term survival remains uncertain. The clinical question addressed in this report is whether treatment with glucagon-like peptide receptor agonists is associated with reductions in all-cause mortality and age-related morbidity beyond their established metabolic effects. This question matters because these agents are now prescribed across broad patient populations, including individuals without diabetes, and long-term exposure may influence cardiovascular, oncologic, and neurodegenerative outcomes. Understanding whether...
