    I’m a little bit confused here. This appears to be a recent video as one man refers to “everybody” already having been “vaccinated”. However, the numbers the other presents are from this preliminary report dated April 20 last year.

    https://pressroom.usc.edu/preliminary-results-of-usc-la-county-covid-19-study-released/

    “Based on testing results from 863 adults, the research team estimates that approximately 4.1% of the county’s adult population has antibody to the virus. Adjusting this estimate for statistical margin of error implies about 2.8% to 5.6% of the county’s adult population has antibody to the virus— which translates to approximately 221,000 to 442,000 adults in the county who have had the infection. That estimate is 28 to 55 times higher than the 7,994 confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported to the county by the time of the study in early April. The number of COVID-related deaths in the county has now surpassed 600.”
    I’m probably as skeptical about the need for masks as you are, Francis, and as mocking of the idiots wearing masks in their cars, alone on suburban sidewalks, etc., but I’m also skeptical of someone who quotes 9-month-old statistical results as recent.
    Where did this video come from?
