The Stanford test in Santa Clara was not random.

"Participants were recruited using Facebook ads targeting a representative sample of the county by demographic and geographic characteristics."

People who responded self selected to go get tested.

1. Paper fails to mention if participants who came to get tested were symptomatic or not pre-test or during test

2. Paper fails to mention if any participants were later admitted to a healthcare facility.

3. Study fails to address reason why this population wanted to be test.
