Thanks.
So, let’s look at Page 11.

Lots of “authorized use” by “authorized clinical laboratories” under FDA emergency use guidance.

This whitepaper seems to indicate that the Opti-Med PCR testing is a to be done in a clinical setting on material that has already been collected.
In other words, previously tested material as a form of verify the presence of COVID-19 in a positive test.
How often does this happen?
Is the Opti-Med test run on ALL positive “regular PCR” tests performed throughout the US every day?
How many “authorized” clinics are there and where are they located.

Again, is every PCR positive, run day-to-day, verified by the OptiMed testing at an authorized clinic?

How busy are those authorized clinics right now.

That said, I’m glad there is a testing route for affirming the presence of COVID-19?
What you gave us is evidence of a testing method that MUST be performed in an AUTHORIZED clinical setting by TRAINED clinicians using a method under FDA /EMEREGENCY USE/ authorization.

It does not prove universal or even ubiquitous use in day-to-day testing.

Next lame excuse?

Your statement (https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3920274/posts?page=10#10) was that the RT-PCR test for COVID-19 is not specific to SARS-CoV-2 and can’t distinguish between it and other coronaviruses.

Now that that’s been shown to be false, you’ve come up with a whole new and different thing, which is to concern troll about whether or not all testing everywhere is being performed in precisely the designated laboratory conditions. This is what’s known as “moving the goalposts”. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_the_goalposts)
