Covid test worthless, cola tests positive for covid

[Scott Downey]

MANY FALSE POSITIVES using the PCR test.

AYFKM?! Dr. David Samadi shares DAMNING video of Austrian parliamentarian testing something VERY different to prove what a joke rapid COVID tests really are (watch)

also recall Portuguese courts declared the test meaningless. That made the medical establishment furious

I know some people disagree on this forum about how worthless it is.

The Covid-19 Vaccine; Is the Goal Immunity or Depopulation?.
“We have very strong evidence that the PCR mass testing as currently conducted is completely worthless.” (Yeadon and a panel of experts have since submitted a 10-point paper to the Eurosurveillance editorial board challenging the science upon which the PCR test is based “which has led to worldwide misdiagnosis of infections attributed to SARS-CoV-2 and associated with the disease COVID-19.

The delusion is mind numbing.
And it is not only about COVID, the whole country and world is falling under strong delusions.

If cola is going to give me covid, I am going to switch to adult beverages—just kidding—I drink a lot of coffee. I hope Colombian coffee doesn’t test positive....what about grape juice?

Unless God intervenes miraculously, the fun is just starting.
Wait until there is NO restrain on the left and all this today will be "the good ole days"!
If Georgia is lost -------------- need I say more?!?!

I really think the socialist LEFT leaders dont have a loving care for people, they use the people (votes) to gain power.
World history of the socialist LEFT is death to millions in war and poverty and oppression, and greater power over the people for themselves, they are a tyranny.

Did this apple sauce really test positive for Covid-19? Wait, that’s not the full story

OK, on to the real science that shows it worhtless.
Covid-19 PCR Testing is Worthless - Frontpagemag

The problem, however, is that the vast majority of PCR tests have a threshold of 40 cycles. Yet at this many cycles, tests “may detect not just live virus but also live fragments, leftovers from infection that pose no particular risks—akin to finding a hair in a room long after a person has left,” as Dr. Michael Mina, an epidemiologist from Harvard to whom The Times essay refers, puts it.

Juliet Morrison, a virologist at the University of California who is also featured in this Times piece, is incredulous that this high a threshold has been established for the PCR test:

“I’m shocked that people would think that 40 could represent a positive.”

Translation: If it requires 40 cycles to return a positive PCR test, it is a false positive and the patient tested is, in point of fact, negative.

Was my PCR test result a false positive? | MIT Medical

“While we can’t know the Ct value associated with your test or any other,” Ferullo says, “we can be pretty sure that your test result is a true positive. But it may be a subclinical case, meaning that your viral load is so low that you are not infectious and cannot spread the virus to other people, including those in your immediate household — which is a good thing!”

Given our community’s experience with Covid Pass testing so far, Ferullo doesn’t believe subclinical positives are prevalent. “In proof of this, as of the end of October, we have done more than 156,000 tests on asymptomatic individuals through COVID Pass and have had fewer than 90 positives,” he notes. “If this was a pervasive problem, I’d expect to see many more than that.”

Dr Mina says need to be using antigen tests, not PCR tests
Epidemiologist Calls on Congress to Fix US COVID Testing Woes

Mina is calling on the federal government to completely overhaul its COVID-19 testing strategy. The main tests being administered right now, known as the PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction), play an important role in diagnosing the virus. However, they require a laboratory to process results, and aren’t as effective as the newer, rapid, antigen tests when it comes to letting people know when they are most contagious.

“It’s not a useful test for public health. Whereas a test that you can use everyday that gives you a result in minutes is actually a test you can use to know if your child coming home from school with COVID, are you able to go see your grandmother in the nursing home,” Mina explained in a Zoom interview with Spectrum News.

"It even can be used at the entrance to restaurants and stores and businesses,” he added.

Adm. Brett Giroir, the federal government’s testing czar, also acknowledges the testing issues with the PCR tests.

“I think PCR tests are not really the gold standard," he said in an interview with Spectrum News. "They were the only standard we had."

"You could be positive weeks after you are no longer infectious," he added. "Antigen tests are extraordinarily good at detecting people who are infectious."

Well, yeah. That's why we need more rapid testing capability. The biggest problem with the PCR tests is that they're slow; by the time you get it back from the lab, you may have already infected people or been cooped up without any reason.
