Again I would caution conclusion of that result. They tested 3,330 with 50 positive, resulting 1.5%. This wasn’t random sample testing. To get that 50-80 fold numbers they depended on double adjustments of both sensitivity/specificity and population tested vs population from the county.

Test kit estimate “sensitivity of 80.3% (95 CI 72.1-87.0%) and specificity of 99.5% (95 CI 98.3-99.9%)”, but they gave strong disclaimer and warning about their final conclusion could be substantially off, due to test kit actual sensitivity/specificity and population selection bias I highlighted:

Their population adjustment was even more questionable.
