Frankly, I think these tests are all b.s.

You may be right. I ran across this article yesterday.

“Frankly, I think these tests are all b.s.”

They ARE!

They over duplicate the sample during testing way beyond what is acceptable.

Because of this they end up with people who will never get sick and will not be contagious, testing “positive”.

They ARE positive, but their viral load is so small that being “positive” is meaningless.

the test is most likely correct but it is not the whole story. What we need to know is viral load.

Not only that, I believe this virus is just like the flu. Some people experience serious risks while the majority of people get over it.

So much hype!

“Frankly, I think these tests are all b.s.”

I agree, a lot of the positives are false positives - and even if not false, all being positive means is that you were exposed - you got a few micro organisms in you, it does NOT mean that you are at all sick or likely to get sick.

Frankly, I think this virus is so widespread - like the common cold - that if you test often enough, you will eventually test positive - but it’s no big deal.

The Republicans surrounding the President are required to test constantly - hence all the positives.

I suspect Democrat politicians are testing positive too, but are not announcing it in order to try and support their narrative that Republicans brought this on themselves by not following ‘the guidelines‘.

If that is true Democrats won’t be able to hide their cases for much longer.. especially with flu season upon us. More sniffling and sneezing will drive people to get tested - and positives will spike.

One very favorable trend accompanying this spike in positives though, is the fact that public figures are recovering quickly these days.

The stories about famous people dying of covid - like Herman Cain - seem increasingly rare and even suspect. Seems like they probably died of something else, and happened to test positive for covid.

Nowadays, when you hear someone tests positive, you can be fairly confident they will get over it like a cold and be fine.

That has to be good for quelling the panic of catching the covid.

I don’t know but even the over 70 crowd has 95+ % chance of recovery, and they both have access to the best doctors.

False positives are super common.
