A comparison of maps suggests that places with high concentration of 5G network towers also have a high prevalence of COVID-19 infections. Soon, it is realized that the map of population density is also quite similar to the maps of 5G towers and COVID-19 infections. Which of the following statements is the most appropriate? a. 5G network is a likely cause of increased transmission of COVID-19 infections b. COVID-19 has likely resulted in the construction of 5G network towers in those areas c. Population density acts as a confounder, resulting in an apparent, yet false, association between 5G and COVID-19 d. All of the above are correct
