TopCat, like I said before, more data is better than less.

Even unreliable data can be taken for what it's worth. For example, that Stanford study that estimates an astronomical 45-50X the number of reported coronavirus infections was pretty bad. It makes me suspect that the authors of that study were trying to make headlines.

But when I took their numbers, accounted for the false positives that the test maker reported, and applied a bit of napkin math, I got to a factor of 10-11X, which is still significant.
