Seroprevalence

This tweet has this graph which references StatCan and says that the seroprevalence of COVID-19 in BC after the second wave was about 1.6 (with a possible range of 0.5% to 2.9%, eyeballing):

This is very different from the 5 to 6% which this survey (that I reported on yesterday) found. I don’t know which has the better methodology, though I would like to trust Statistics Canada.

However, 1.6% of BC’s population is 81,600, which is so close to the official case count of 80,672 on 1 March 2020 that I can’t really believe it. 2.9% of BC’s population is 147,900, and that seems more believable.
