In other words you are reducing the testing and the people you are testing are already skewed towards the probability of being positve. KS has the 2nd lowest testing in the country. If I want a high percentage I test less and test people already skewed towards the result I want. Get it? |

Are you saying this is due to an agenda? Someone wants a result and is skewing the data intentionally? |

In fact that Dr. Areola from JCDOE said based on that number we can assume 10% of the people in JoCo are positive which is just flat out absurd. |

Why do they want to keep schools closed?

Unions want it. Vast majority of Teachers want it opened. Union was supposed to have some kind of rally at the Olathe school board today. They want 14 days of %positive under 5%. I don't know how you get that when you only test people who are already skewed towards the positive and then claim it's a meaningful number.
I know what your trying to do but the numbers do not lie. They are using a skewed set of numbers to propagate a misleading result as justification to close the schools. Why? You can go ask but that is the net-net regardless. |
