The problem is they cranked the sensitivity up 200%. Normal PCR cycle is 20, they (FDA EUA) pushed to 40. So the fact they say “insignificant” yeah no shite because you’re practically over infection by mid 30 cycles and very unlikely contagious.

Isn't that why a positive result was recommended to have a second test which, according to the study, resulted in 94% accuracy.
I don't ever recall hearing about a 2nd recommended test. I guess I need to watch more CNN.
But why wouldn't they recommend 4 or 5 or even?
Hell just sit there and take tests all day till they get it right.
Oh and don't forget your mask, or 2 or 3.

Umm, is this when we’re all supposed to chant “trust the science”????

In an unrealated study, JAMA reported that liquid water is 100% wet.

But go get your 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th booster!
And has anyone defined “fully vaccinated”’yet? I see employees being told they have to be “fully vaccinated”. What exactly is that?

94% accuracy is terrible. It only looks good compared to the 60% accuracy.

This has been known for awhile, it’s why people like Nick Saban and anyone else were able to take multiple tests and get out. Famous people only of course.

The study itself says that all the tests were from the same batch from a single manufacturer (which has been shown to be faulty).

It’s okay to take an L every now and then. No need to lie. Y’all already fricked us all over.

And Jackasses like JBE used cases, not hospitalizations to destroy small business - and guess what, he knew they were false positives but they gave him his false narrative.

No one was recommending a second test for a positive result.
When we were doing voluntary rapid tests at my former job (school) we highly recommended a follow up PCR for any rapid positive test.
The health department also wouldn’t recognize a positive until it was confirmed by PCR or fully symptomatic.

And you can bet your arse they all knew about this
