To give evidence to this comment, the gp's source notes that ~75% of those that tested positive for covid were >60 years old. Whereas the BOP [0] reports a distinctly different age demographic. We know that covid dramatically affects people differently based on age, so I wouldn't suspect IFR to be similar to that of a cruise ship (where it is typical for the demographic to be older and retired)
