OK - what’s the recap? Because that video is 55 mins long, and all sorts of different media like to trot out their expert.
Well, I'd recommend watching it...he's a Stanford Medical Professor who's been on the cutting edge of antibody testing. His MLB study yielded less than 1% infected based on antibody testing, which is less than other studies.
--He doesn't believe large scale contact tracing is feasible given the fact millions are already infected...and it's infectious, do you test people every week? He also felt their were HIPPA issues with that level of invasive testing.
--He believes in aggressively testing 1) Nursing home workers and patients...2) All medical personnel with patient contact...3) People who present with symptoms.
--He is bearish on a vaccine. Pointed out we still don't have an HIV vaccine, nor have any coronavirus vaccines been successful. He believes the government should undertake a vast data mining of the people who have become seriously ill/died, and try and determine what makes them more susceptible so we can devise better treatment interventions.
--He believes it's a false choice between "lives vs. the economy" He says it's likely more lives may be lost in a continued lockdown scenario, more suicides, deaths from other medical conditions that aren't being treated, and the fact that economic collapses and related poverty are correlated with poor health and incremental deaths.
--He says lockdowns work to a certain extent, but they just delay the inevitable. Says it's critical to protect the most vulnerable, obviously the elderly and those with serious underlying health problems. Doesn't believe most young/healthy people should be locked down.
--Says most of the transmission appears to be done in crowded, indoor events. He's not bullish on sports reopening with fans, concerts, etc. Outdoor activities are significantly less dangerous he believes, but not 100% safe.
He's a reasonable guy who makes it clear he doesn't have all the answers...seems to go where the data takes him.
