More Than Half of People in U.S. Likely Had Covid-19, CDC Says
Recent news reports  are screaming that 3 out of 5 Americans has already had COVID catch me by surprise. All the counters I have been following for a couple of years (example 1, Example 2]) have reported 80+ million cases which for a population of 332 million is 80/322 = 25%. that is a far cry from the 58% recently reported. What gives? What am I missing?
