FDA halts Bill Gates coronavirus testing program
The Hill ^ | 5/15/20 | Tal Axelrod

Posted on 05/15/2020 8:03:38 PM PDT by WWG1WWA

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) halted a coronavirus testing program promoted by billionaire Bill Gates and Seattle health officials pending reviews.

The program sought to send test kits to the homes of people both healthy and sick to try to bring the country to the level of testing officials say is necessary before states can begin safely reopening. The program, which had already gone through thousands of tests, found dozens of cases that had been previously undiagnosed. The Seattle Coronavirus Assessment Network (SCAN) said on its website that the FDA had asked it to pause testing while it receives additional authorizations, but maintained its procedures are safe.

“[T]he Food & Drug Administration (FDA) recently clarified its guidance for home-based, self-collected samples to test for COVID-19. We have been notified that a separate federal emergency use authorization (EUA) is required to return results for self-collected tests," the program said. "The FDA has not raised any concerns regarding the safety and accuracy of SCAN’s test, but we have been asked to pause testing until we receive that additional authorization."

Good. Bill Gates wants a world with 144,000,000 “hunter-gatherers” while the rest of us die.

“WHO (sic) can we trust more...

Sic doesn’t mean what you think it means. Also, it is properly presented in brackets, not parentheses.

“The program sought to send test kits to the homes of people both healthy and sick to try to bring the country to the level of testing officials say is necessary before states can begin safely reopening.”

If this is predicated on providing cotton swabs to people, so that they can do their own nasopharyngeal sampling, it's problematic. Covid can infect multiple tissues, and just doing nasopharyngeal sampling is likely to lead to a significant number of false negatives - particularly if people are doing their own sampling.

Who cares. This and the 5 or 6 previous viruses prove that the Chinese are doing biological weapons, no one can come to any other conclusion. This communist government is too dangerous to deal with. China has to be quarantined from the rest of the world; no travel, no trade, non of its citizens, nothing otherwise the next virus from this hell hole will be so deadly, no one, I mean no one will survive!
