Unless you argue that all of the effluent-testing for Covid fragments is BS, there's a whole lot of asymptotic spread. Or a whole lots "nowhere near bad enough to be really noticeable or in hospital". This time, when the effluent spiked in Canada there wasn't a 5-10-day following spike in the hospitals and particularly not in the EU. Two friends, older, got Covid in the last few weeks and had a rough 5+ day go of it. Nothing life threatening, just worst-flu-ever kind of bad. I would have thought that if lots of people were having similar weeks, the news would have noticed it and talked about it ad infinitum.
