CDC to drop 'gold standard' COVID test: PCR risks false positives
False positives? Like counting the Flu as Covid meaning the Flu disappeared overnight?

Nordlund did not respond to followup queries asking if the risk of false positives had motivated the CDC's discontinuance in any way.
Those risks have been acknowledged by multiple prominent public health figures, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to President Biden and the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. In a July 2020 interview on an infectious disease podcast, Fauci warned that the sensitive PCR tests might, if allowed to progress through too many amplification cycles, return a "positive" result when it was actually just detecting "dead nucleotides."
The World Health Organization earlier this year warned in a medical product alert that PCR tests carry with them the risk of "false positives" because the test might only be picking up small fragments of the virus via heavy amplification.
quote:
"[D]isease prevalence alters the predictive value of test results; as disease prevalence decreases, the risk of false positive increases," the alert stated. "This means that the probability that a person who has a positive result (SARS-CoV-2 detected) is truly infected with SARS-CoV-2 decreases as prevalence decreases, irrespective of the claimed specificity."
We got fricked by stats...

We knew that people who had recovered could test positive for awhile. So what?

That’s what stats are for.
Losing football team: yeah, but we had more total yards and first downs!

They need to run PCR’s along side the gold standard test to see how inaccurate we were over the last year.

We’ve been shutting down schools, workplaces, and sports over fake bs PCR tests. People need to be arrested and executed.

We also killed the greatest economy ever and opened the doors to mass inflation through printing money like we never have in history all because of BS testing.

The easily manipulated and grossly flawed PCR test has been the smoking gun this entire time.

Yep and people that do not understand how numbers are manipulated to fit the narrative...

This combination was no accident. The Chinese, specifically the CCP, was losing economic ground for the first time in decades thanks to Trump and something had to reset that balance. They simply called in some of the investments they had made in politicians, news people, and others overtime to make sure there was a hard reset.

Stats! Ugh what are they good for ? Absolutely nothin !
Posted on 8/3/21 at 8:52 am to stout
Is this the same thing that was reported last week where the CDC is asking HCPs to use a test that can test for Covid and flu at the same time?

False positives?
Posted on 8/3/21 at 9:09 am to stout
I keep seeing that the PCR test counted the flu as a positive. Is there any reference for this?

The CDC admitted last week that they created a Frankenstein digital signature for testing. Of course, nobody admitted that all the flu cases were diagnosed as covid... why would they do that?
Its a scam.
