This observation is associated with more stringent testing criteria introduced concurrently with the "lockdown light", which is reflected in subsequently increasing dark figures of infections estimated by our model.

Three different methods for estimating (effective) IFRs are presented: (a) population-averaged IFRs based on the assumption that the infection risk is independent of age and time, (b) effective IFRs based on the assumption that the age distribution of confirmed cases approximately reflects the age distribution of infected individuals, and (c) effective IFRs accounting for age- and time-dependent dark figures of infections.
