Extrapolating those numbers, for every reported case there would be 70 - 90 unreported cases.
If this can then be projected to Germany (very small sample size BTW) then -
This is almost 2 orders of magnitude error in those percentages in the first link above, ie when it says %78 it would be in reality 0.9% - 1.1%
Please feel free to re-examine the numbers.
Even if the heard immunity is off, and is really under 50%, then it means the virus is not very virile.
Again, this is why I said Sweden was interesting
