Coronavirus infections in Orange County were found to be seven times higher than previously thought, according to the results of a UC Irvine study released Wednesday.
County officials hired UCI to do a serological study of a large cross-section of residents to check antibodies for COVID-19 to get a better handle on how prevalent the highly infectious disease has been in the community, according to Orange County CEO Frank Kim.
Positivity rates are determined from polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, tests, which involve a health professional using a swab of the nasal cavity and are considered the most trustworthy when determining if a patient is infected.
The accuracy of serological, or blood tests, to determine if a person has developed antibodies to COVID-19 is considered less accurate.

The infection fatality rate is 0.65%. We’ve known that since May. Before that, we knew it was somewhere between 0.5% and 1%.
So now we know it cruised through and a whole bunch of people are immune.
Yeah uhuh, I’m believing that... /s

WATCH: Oregon health official announces COVID-19 death toll dressed as clown
Fitting, doncha think???
da fuq???
My thoughts exactly when I first saw it. Thought it was “the Bee”.
Come to Oregon, be governed by literal clowns.
As a lifelong Oregonian, they are clowns.
Back to the article. The US has had 9,018,524 confirmed cases. If reality is seven times than, then the actual number of cases is really 63,129,668. If that is the case, then the death rate for this disease is really miniscule.
OCis a HUGE Republican area I call this BS!!
Agreed 100%, but when taken in context to public opinion for all of the compilers its like this: Tell 100 lies and 100 truths, fear still wins, even if the truths outnumber the lies.
Thats the real damage.
