April 18, 2020
Barbara Anderson, a professor at the University of Michigan Population Studies Center and a past chair of the bureau’s Census Scientific Advisory Committee, said that the bureau’s decision to delay some of the count could help circumvent the virus and “make the undercount much less than it would have been otherwise.”She said: “Even if visiting individual homes is impeded, there are other things they can do to try to improve the count, and I think they will.”
