Dear @WHO,

When you announce there are 1 million #COVID19 cases, please can you make it clear that the actual number of infections may be closer to 100 million.

Estimates here (Imperial + top-down) for UK showing ~3.2m infections, but 30k cases. https://twitter.com/JamieWoodhouse/status/1245362548200935429?s=20

The "confirmed cases" are in hospital, immune or dead.

It's the millions of un-tested infected people who:

- Are infecting others
- Drive ICU load
- Determine death tolls.

Talking only about the "cases" iceberg tip breeds complacency.

Complacency kills. It already is.
