Do they have Covid tests that test for all the mutants or just Covid positive?

I doubt any test can specify mutants and can only be determined by a state or Federal lab.

Yesterday was Delta
Today is Lambda
What’s tomorrow? Super spreader, killer everyone Gamma?

How do they know?
You send positive samples to a better equipped lab to do genomic sequencing.

I don't understand how this is so hard for people to understand. No, they do not "test for Delta or Lambda" onsite. They test for Covid(any variant). Some samples are sent to labs to be sequenced and they can identify the exact strain of the virus. This isn't some kind of gotcha.

Last week we found out they hadn’t been able to tell the difference between the flu and COVID for more than a year.

Now they’re supposed to be able to differentiate between strains of the same virus. Very believable.

Sadly my daughter is spitting mad right now at the unvaxxed. She's realllly mad now because I told her it was because of the illegals in Shreveport.

If anyone has a link to the drop of illegals in s'port, please share. Im going to red pill her before long, God willing.

So what differentiates the three, (covid, delta, lambda)?

Gee I wonder how it got here.


Wonder if they disinfect the buses each trip or just load them back up?

Maybe it is for some, most don't trust what we hear.

I know you guys don't want to read info from the CDC or WHO, so here's some info from the ECDC about variants they are tracking.
variants of concern

Your local COVID testing facility is using one of the approved or authorized tests to confirm with reasonable certainty whether a person has COVID-19 or not. A subset of the swabs collected are sent in for further testing including genomic mapping for epidemiological survey.

They've been able to map and track genomic changes in the virus since at least early 2020. It's how we knew where the virus was entering the country, how it was spreading, etc. Just because Walgreens can't tell you the specific variant you are infected with doesn't mean it can't be tested for.

And for the 100th time, all RT-PCR assays can tell the difference between covid and influenza. The difference is the ability of an assay to confirm yes/no for 1 virus vs multiple.

You come in with cough, SOB, fever, malaise...do you want the clinic to tell you exactly what is causing your symptoms with 1 test or 5?

Definitely not by way of plane or buses from let’s say the border area . We can surely discount that theory

Hmmm. Thoughts?



you should be fine with a lambda of .85 at WOT. If you're using actual stoich of 14.7:1 then a .85 lambda would be an AFR of ~12.5. If you're using actual stoich of 14.7:1 then a .85 lambda would be an AFR of ~12.5.
