Question

Healthcare workers in South Korea believe that far more individuals were infected with COVID-19 than were revealed by their testing efforts. How would you design an epidemiological study to investigate this?

Please specify the type of study, the hypothesis tested, the groups involved, the sources of study participants, and what calculations you would perform to test the hypothesis.

Answer 1

We need more medical teams at airports, railway stations, bus stands, and any other public gathering place to test people. We also need to send people to check door to door. Mob apps like Arogya Setu should be made to know the nearby corona positive people. It can be tested using PCR or medical kits developed for COVID-19 but no vaccine is made till now for its treatment. Generally, medical teams, healthcare centers, or big organizations like W.H.O are involved and are helping to reveal more about this virus.

Specific data is made which includes Total death, Active Cases, Recovered people, etc to help people know the current scenario in their cities.
