Now we are using a PCR test with 35, even 45, amplification cycles on people who are not “fully vaccinated”. If a person is fully vaccinated he will not be considered a case of Covid unless he tests positive with 28 amplifications or fewer AND is either hospitalized or dead.
Tell me the science behind this? COVID-19 is either a disease or is not a disease. These double standard regulations surely sound like politics, not science.
Whenever some jackass in my business circles tells me about “following the science” in any matter, I point out to them that I have an advanced degree and a professional license in a STEM field that required 30+ undergraduate credits in laboratory science and engineering courses. In my experience, the people who are most vocal about “science” in these conversations are the dumbest ones with the least exposure to anything remotely resembling science — typically lawyers, HR nitwits, “executive coaches,” and people in real estate.
