EDIT: Here's the actual study results: A hundred deaths out of 48,000-81,000 infections corresponds to an infection fatality rate of 0.12-0.2%.
If the deaths are at 66 and the true infected population is 48K then the fatality rate is .14% !!April 17, 2020
If the range is at the upper end and 81K people were infected then the fatality rate is not even .1%— Justin Hart (@justin_hart)

There you go again. Trying to ruin a perfectly good Panic Pandemic. Now, the engines of fake news are just going to have to work that much harder. I think there is a nice gulag straw mattress with your name on it.

A ton of people here and elsewhere are going to have to chew their own turds on this one. We'll see who the honest ones are.

You know the Panic Pandemic is bad when Prince Harry shelters in place and winds up looking like Curley Joe.

Looks like they are getting a double bang for the buck with the AIDS drugs...

These prevalence estimates represent a range between 48,000 and 81,000 people infected in Santa Clara County by early April, 50-85-fold more than the number of confirmed cases

To be fair, the study did have some limitations: our sampling strategy selected for members of Santa Clara County with access to Facebook and a car to attend drive-through testing sites. This resulted in an over-representation of white women between the ages of 19 and 64... Who knew?

These prevalence estimates represent a range between 48,000 and 81,000 people infected in Santa Clara County by early April, 50-85-fold more than the number of confirmed cases. Conclusions The population prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in Santa Clara County implies that the infection is much more widespread than indicated by the number of confirmed cases. Population prevalence estimates can now be used to calibrate epidemic and mortality projections.
