Reply to: Dr. Erickson’s viral “COVID-19 Briefing” video is dangerously wrong Posted April 27, 2020

Except he admits that ’employers would send people who had shown signs of fever, dry coughing etc. during screening and would be tested before being cleared to get back to work’ so why not test the rest of the workers? probably because they didn’t show any signs which entirely contradicts what you are saying.

Except he WAS making the claim… from the video transcript as provided …”So if you look at California—these numbers are from yesterday—we have 33,865 COVID cases, out of a total of 280,900 total tested. That’s 12% of Californians were positive for COVID” He uses extrapolation as proof to make generalist statements throughout his argument… “We’ve tested over 4 million… which gives us a 19.6% positive out of those who are tested for COVID-19. So if this is a typical extrapolation 328 million people times 19.6 is 64 million.”

No activity yet.
