David Crowe | Coronavirus COVID-19: The Risks, The Testing, & The Treatments

Historical Sample Testing, Blinded Studies and Statistical Coincidence

Crowe proposes that hospitals should test historical frozen samples from years ago to see if the "new" coronavirus RNA is present in the past. He argues that even a 1% false positive rate in a city like Wuhan would create 100,000 "cases" out of thin air. He suggests that finding specific RNA in a small group of people could be a statistical coincidence rather than an outbreak.
