you can draw that the rate of infection is probably lower than current statistics show. Its just like cnn or fox taking a poll of their viewers. all results will be skewed toward the intended answer, same here, the intended outcome is keeping the rates up, but like those polls, history will show that the actual numbers ar emuch less
