It's funny because I am in Ohio and the study was done by OSU.

I wonder how they did their sample because this is not what I am seeing from the people I meet in Ohio.

There is a technical term for it called Absolute Bullshit.

Sampling was probably bad

My rule is the data is conclusive when you can make a nice big metaanalysis out of it. Until that happens, one study does not mean much.

this fucking dingbat used a sample of 2000 adults -- let's estimate 140,000,000 kids in u.s. and 200,000,000 adults

2000/200,000,000 = 0.001% sample size of the actual population

this guy is working in covid territory for certain as i believe 0.001% is also the infection fatality rate for americans under 45

It's most likely a biased sampling as well. No indication of the age range, so I suspect it was sampled from the older adults who are more likely to be scared of the virus. If it was sampled in the urban area, they're more likely to have been brainwashed by the media.
