Data are n, median cumulative infection rate with 95% CrI in parentheses, and median estimated infection-fatality risk with 95% CrI in parentheses. Data are given to three significant figures. Cases and deaths were reported by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene between March 1 and June 6, 2020. Cumulative infection rate is for all those infected by June 6, 2020. And infection-fatality risk is averaged over March 22 to June 6, 2020, with estimates for March 1–21 excluded because estimates were less accurate for these earliest weeks when zero or few deaths were reported. CrI=credible interval.
