It’s a ridiculous slap in the face to the concept of medicine to test non sick people




So was effectively quarantining healthy people.

So basically, a vaccine?

This doesn't seem like the L people think it is.




I tested positive for weeks after symptoms. I eventually stopped trying to get a negative test

Anyone else think it's weird that pro baseball players are getting J&J?

Is it for the one shot aspect and lesser side effects?

I know what you are saying but you are thinking about this the wrong way.

These people don’t “have covid”. We are finding covid particles in the nose of a perfectly healthy person.

Our noses pick up bacteria and viruses all day long. Go ahead and swab your nose and put it in a Petri dish. You are going to grow staphylococcus, streptococcus, and all kinds of viruses.

Does that mean you have a staph infection? Obviously not.

Go around and start swabbing random surfaces and I bet you will find covid particles occasionally as well.
Swab a tree a 100 times and you might eventually find some covid genetic material that returns a positive test. Does the tree have covid?

And this is why I don't understand why people that are vaccinated are worried about mask and those not vaccinated.



I agree with you. I'm vaxxed and I don't give two shits if you are or if you wear a mask. And I'll shake your hand. But frankly, I didn't care much if you wore a mask or not at any point provided we weren't locked in a 3x5 room together. There certainly are some folks on the far end of the spectrum who are legit scared.

The vaccine is supposed to keep you from being hospitalized or dying, not from testing positive on a sensitive laboratory test.

The OP probably doesn't know this but vaccines don't typically keep you from catching some malady, but rather either mostly or totally reduce the symptoms and shorten the illness.

Why do they keep testing vaccinated people who have no symptoms?



I'm going to assume it was some kind of contract tracing for the entire clubhouse after a positive test of a symptomatic person, otherwise they are f'n loons.

Not saying you are wrong, but the top of the page on the CDC website CDC website says...

It's almost as if shoving dead or weakened virus in your system may cause false positives. Who knew?

Update, the 8th person is no longer symptomatic after having mild symptoms.
