Does “absolute correlate” mean line that marks ~100% efficacy against an endpoint? Because if so, it’s nuts to expect that. Very few diseases have one, and they all have a separation of scales/compartmentalization that separates disease from infection. Most pathogens don’t work that way! Pet peeve..
