re: There is no such thing as the Delta Variant

How many times is someone going to post this asinine conspiracy theory?

They absolutely can test for the delta variant, just not at the clinic. The send samples off to be sequenced.

How then are they able to tell people on the spot they have the delta variant when it must go to a clinic for evaluation?

free standing ER's, hospitals, PCP's... all have no problem saying 'you have the delta variant' once you enlighten them you've been vaccinated - it doesn't work like that

the only test that can supposedly detect the variant is the PCR test, which yes...must go to a clinic for extensive testing, normally 72hours minimum... and the CDC is considering dropping the PCR due to the large numbers of false positives it gives - so really we are back to false/incomplete/inaccurate information coming from one source..
