It just so happens this exact same 18-character sequence, verbatim, is also found on Homo sapiens chromosome 8! As far as I can tell, this means that the WHO test kits should find a positive result in all humans. Can anyone explain this otherwise?

But what does this mean for those who are found Negative by a WHO test kit?

Have we finally created a method that is able to detect those visitors from non-human precincts beyond the Earth?

I can’t count how many times I’ve posted what I thought was a semi-witty quip, only to see my post land right beneath one from another FReeper who had exactly the same idea. OK, this one was pretty obvious, but I’ll just stipulate that we’re both geniuses.

I was tested negative on 12/18/2020. I’m pretty sure I was born in Sacramento.

In order to get a false positive or a false negative result om a PCR there has to be a “gold standard” method for comparison. There isnt one because you cannot properly define what a “case” is in the first place.
