31 Jul: Gateway Pundit: Ontario, Canada Govt Medical Official Warns Against Mass Coronavirus Testing Will Not Actually Achieve Anything, False Positives Almost Half in Low COVID Areas (Video)
by Kristinn Taylor
As Ontario, Canada prepares to open schools for children in September, Ontarios Associate Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Barbara Yaffe warned against mass testing for the COVID-19 China coronavirus, saying it takes resources from other needed areas and does not actually achieve anything. Dr. Yaffe also said that in areas with low incidences of COVID infection, the rate for false positive test results is almost half.
Yaffe said testing should be reserved for suspected cases, people with symptoms and their contacts....
You know, I think a lot of people think that testing is going to really solve the whole problem, and it isnt. Its one component of a response. If you test somebody today, uh, you only know if theyre infected today. And in fact if youre testing in a population that doesnt have very much COVID, youll get false positives almost half the time. That is the person actually doesnt have COVID, they have something else, they may have nothing. Uh, so it will just complicate the picture....
