“Why did the PCR test lose it’s (sic, not “it’s” for “it is” but “its” instead) EMU” (where is the question mark?)

Any kid in 6th grade English class could have corrected that. Sloppy writing from the “authorities”. Good catch.

“The CDC website appear’s to be overrun by highly infectious apostrophe’s.”

And how about this paragraph that is opaque to me:

“Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV were available for CDC use at the time the test was developed and this study conducted, assays designed for detection of the 2019-nCoV RNA were tested with characterized stocks of in vitro transcribed full-length RNA (N gene; GenBank accession: MN908947.2) of known titer (RNA copies/µL) spiked into a diluent consisting of a suspension of human A549 cells and viral transport medium (VTM) to mimic clinical specimen.”
