The PCR tests can’t differentiate between Covid and the flu.

That's completely false, but it's a nice soundbite to get the loonies all stirred up so run with it.

I trust the CDC, and I believe that flu went from around 35,000 deaths to under 2,000.
Seems legit.
Go get your third shot in under 8 months.

“The PCR tests can't differentiate between Covid and the flu.”

That's completely false, but it's a nice soundbite to get the loonies all stirred up so run with it.

It is always amusing when someone who is completely ignorant makes fun of people who actually know more than they do.

Hey Covidiot wake up!!! Why do you think the CDC revoked the emergency use authorization of the Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the first and most popular PCR test for Covid. They are now “emphasizing the use of the Flu SC2 Multiplex Assay to help differentiate between Sars-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Influenza B.

Let me parse that for you a little since you seem to have issues with comprehension. The PCR test had a false positive rate of up to 90% and was leading millions of people who had the flu and their physicians to believe that they had Covid.

“CDC encourages laboratories to consider adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses.” Smart guy that means that the previous test was not able to differentiate between the flu and Covid.https://uncoverdc.com/2021/07/28/cdc-revokes-eua-on-pcr-discontinues-use-in-december/
