my friend probably had the virus (2 inconclusive tests) and tried to get into this study. some group asked her for $125 to get tested. i'm not sure if she saw any of the facebook ads. so, grain of salt about representativeness of the sample. there's for sure a response bias towards people who think they had it.

Just curious, did your friend have pretty severe symptoms? As in, was it worse perceivably than say a case of bad flu?

The Stanford study was free. They didn't charge $125.
