Which state will provide Americans as much transparency and due process as Portugal does before forcibly locking them down? It appears that Florida is leading the way in bringing sunlight to the process of PCR testing, which is being used as the formative tool inducing forced quarantines.
It's been nearly three months since the New York Times discovered that a large percentage of the positive tests being reported in this country are only at trace levels and are not infectious. The paper reported that most labs were using 35-40 RNA amplifications, known as "cycle thresholds" (CTs), in order to detect traces of the virus. Most research shows that any virus that is captured only through a CT level above 25, and certainly above 30, is very likely to be a false or meaningless positive. This is why a Portuguese judge recently ruled that any positive test that used more than 25 cycle thresholds is not reliable and cannot be used to force quarantine....

How about we do PCR tests and include the cycle number in every report? Then we would have an indicator of how infectious someone is. Stop this positive/negative nonsense. Tell us what the cycle count is.
Good luck getting this info in NYS. Neither public nor private labs will give it out.
Ah! But the Democrats won’t pass liability protection against businesses for possible lawsuits against them for culpability in the spread of SARS-Cov-2. These labs will be culpable for false positives once it becomes known about the problem with PCR tests.
