I watched a few minutes of the news conference and quickly lost confidence in this doctor. He says 12% of tested Californians were positive, and concluded “if we extrapolate this out” then there are millions of infected Californians. Do you see the problem? It’s that the people tested are not a random sample. They tend to be people with symptoms. So you can’t extrapolate! I’m sure Dr. Fauci wouldn’t have made such an obvious mistake.

Antibody testing has begun. Stanford did one, and I’ve heard if others underway. This osteopath could be referring to those tests to get a 12 percent number.

Those doctors used random samples rather than just sick. There are somewhere between 50 to 100 times more than the experts modeled.

Why would you make such an assumption?

You absolutely can extrapolate, other tests have been conducted in CA by Stanford University and NY State just completed a major series of tests which showed similar results to what the Doctor stated......

We can’t test everyone so a sample has to be used, the bigger the sample the better the results...
