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. Tenchusatsu

I'll grant that there are coronavirus deaths that have not been counted but, in my opinion, those are easily offset by deaths that are counted as coronavirus deaths that were in fact caused by the underlying illness. .... more than just offset

dailyvoice.com ...the daily % positives in the various NYC boroughs are approaching the 21% figure claimed by the antibody test in NYC. I've been following it on a daily basis and during the explosive phase, % positives in the borough of Queens and Brooklyn were above 50% on a daily basis (not considering any test delay)................they have come down to the high 20s%.........

There’s a group of people that won’t take the antibody studies seriously until the first Wednesday in November. https://t.co/txgG2CH9e9 — Steve Deace (@SteveDeaceShow) April 23, 2020 Based on the data from studies in New York City, Boston, Stanford/Santa Clara County, & USC/LA County it now seems quite clear that the coronavirus is far more common and far less deadly than most have modeled & believed. — Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) April 23, 2020 Every single piece of new data we’ve gathered since the beginning of this thing shows coronavirus to be less deadly than it was the day before and the economic damage of shutdowns to be worse than we thought the day before. And still we refuse to reverse our national suicide. — Jesse Kelly (@JesseKellyDC) April 23, 2020 Is it not interesting that a simple country pediatrician from fly over country has a better grasp on the trajectory of a pandemic than a big shot national security expert like @TomBossert? https://t.co/haUcNqOZo4 — Joe Pilot, MD (@JoeSilverman7) April 23, 2020 THEN GET US THE HELL OUT OF OUR HOMES https://t.co/E2x8QxLM8i — Steve Deace (@SteveDeaceShow) April 23, 2020 Sunlight and fresh air kill the virus off faster than darkness and indoor environments The scientists have confirmed what all of us already knew Maybe open the parks and public spaces up, politicians — Buck Sexton (@BuckSexton) April 23, 2020

New: Study of 318 outbreaks in China found transmission occurred out-of-doors in only one, involving just 2 cases. Most occurred in home or public transport. Raises key chance for states to move services outdoors (religious, gym classes, restaurants, etc) But by all means, let's keep everyone under strict "stay-at-home" orders and keep those NYC subways running. 🙄 https://t.co/zHJ3VtMH7k — Brian Phillips (@RealBPhil) April 23, 2020
