Over 3,200 people in Santa Clara County were tested for COVID-19 antibodies on Friday and Saturday in an effort to determine the proportion of the population that either has or has recovered from coronavirus. The study, led by researchers at Stanford Medicine, is the first of its kind in the nation.

The results, expected to be released within a week, could be used to guide future public health policy in the county, according to associate professor of medicine and study co-lead Eran Bendavid.

“Also, there probably aren’t many students on campus. The grunts who do all the basic data entry and analysis have probably all gone home.”

LOL. The professors “ah how do you turn this thing on?”.

“Premier Biotech, the lab which makes the tests, says on its website that the results are available within 10 minutes of the sample being taken and that the results remain valid for 20 minutes.”

1. I think you mean results are available within 10 minutes of start of test.

2. Test results don’t expire.

“...So which is it Stanford...incompetence or agenda?

Benefit of the doubt speaks to ‘agenda’, which begs the question, WHAT IS STANFORDS AGENDA? “
******************************************************
There is, with near certainty, no evil intent or agenda. Take a bit of time and listen to this:

One of the comments made by a member of the study team from another article on the same subject at ‘The Stanford Daily’ stated results were expected on Sunday evening April 5th and she did not know why the delay.
Her emails asking why had not been returned.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask google.
