(A question rather than an issue)
In https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/coronavirus-excess-deaths-estimates you report how you used the Demography-adjusted infection fatality rate, but I wasn't able to find this in the source data?

Hi @stevepowell99, happy to help:
You can find the file used by the models in this repo here:
https://github.com/TheEconomist/covid-19-the-economist-global-excess-deaths-model/blob/main/source-data/ifr_cache.RDS
This file is based on the estimates generated here:
https://github.com/TheEconomist/covid-19-age-adjusted-ifr
The latter repo also details my approach, and links to article in which they were first published.
