1:03 - Putting the charts in perspective
5:52 - Deriving results from the Control Group - "worst case scenario".

The link to this official BC data (May 2022):
http://www.bccdc.ca/health-professionals/data-reports/covid-19-surveillance-dashboard

NOTE: 14% (out of 5.3M people) = 742,000 people (from first, far left chart) - large control group size indeed.

ALSO NOTE: The case number percentage ought to be calculated over the number of individuals tested, rather than the entire population. Consequently the percentage of cases in BC would be a larger number. I didn't manage to find the number of tests done in the month of April in BC to update that equation's result.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
