I've been waiting on these results, and they just came two hours ago.
The results are in for the Stanford CoVid-19 antibody study of the population of Santa Clara, CA. The results are in the bottom image. They are very, very interesting.
What the study results mean is that the virus is far, far more prevalent, 50 to 85 times more so, than the estimated active cases. What that indicates is that it is far more widespread and has been around a lot longer than thought. So very many doctors and nurses have said that it has been here much longer than we thought. I know a few personally who have told me that directly. There are many others on the internet. Fakebk pulled down two threads I was following with over 1k comments of people (mostly healthcare workers) saying the same.
Look again at the 50 to 85x. Wow! I mean, WOW!
What these results also mean is that it is far, far less dangerous than previous and current estimates. If the reports by doctors that are saying other things like pneumonia are wrongly being counted as coronavirus, then it is even less deadly.
I have yet to have anyone answer why normal pneumonia
deaths fell off so sharply this year. Click image to read source urls.
I hope Stanford repeats the study to see how the spread was affected by the lockdown. Will we see that the multiple Stanford PhDs who advised we continue to live normally so we could spread it to develop herd immunity were correct? It's starting to look like it.
If this study bears true, then all we have done is slowed down that natural process, or in other words, shot ourselves in the foot. We would've developed herd immunity (aka indirect protection) to CoVid-19 much faster by letting the healthy interact by living their normal lives. We should have handled coronavirus like we have with all other viruses by letting the healthy work and sheltering those with the highest risk.

Another doctor's thoughts:
“What people are trying to do is flatten the curve,” Wittkowski said. “I don’t really know why. But, what happens is if you flatten the curve, you also prolong … widen it, and it takes more time. And I don’t see a good reason for a respiratory disease to stay in the population longer than necessary.” According to Wittkowski, failing to allow the virus to circulate has prevented the nation from developing herd immunity. ... “With all respiratory diseases, the only thing that stops the disease is herd immunity,” Wittkowski continued. “About 80 percent of the people need to have had contact with the virus, and the majority of them won’t even have recognized that they were infected, or they had very, very mild symptoms, especially if they are children. So, it’s very important to keep the schools open and kids mingling to spread the virus to get herd immunity as fast as possible, and then the elderly people, who should be separated, and the nursing homes should be closed during that time, can come back and meet their children and grandchildren after about four weeks when the virus has been exterminated.” Source
