So, the PCR test is as accurate as the voting machines that gave The Bidet the stolen election?

... but losing sense of smell and taste is not a flu symptom...
********
But it’s cold symptom; so you could test positive while you had a cold and think you had covid.

https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dls/locs/2021/12-03-2021-lab-alert-CDC_Update_SARS-CoV-2_Omicron_Variant.html

What Laboratories Should Know:

There are no authorized, cleared, or approved diagnostic tests to specifically detect SARS-CoV-2 variants (Omicron or other variants). Currently, COVID-19 tests are designed and authorized to check broadly for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, not for specific variants.

The Omicron variant has a deletion in the spike (S) gene (Δ69-70). Some molecular tests with multiple genetic targets include a target covering the portion of the S gene where the deletion occurs. The presence of this mutation can result in an S-gene target failure (SGTF, also referred to as an S-gene drop out). The S-gene target will fail (return as negative) while other targets are expected to remain positive in the presence of this virus. SGTF can signal the need for sequencing to characterize the variant in a specimen. SGTF has been observed in other variants and thus is not specific to the Omicron variant”

No. Gateway Pundit’s reporting on this is as accurate as their report on the 2020 election — not accurate at all.

CDC Withdraws Use of PCR Test for COVID! Finally Admits the Test Can Not Differentiate Between the Flu and COVID Virus! GP ^ | December 29, 2021 at 9:10am | By Jim Hoft Posted on 12/29/2021, 10:20:04 AM by Hojczyk

After December 31, 2021, the CDC will withdraw the use of the PCR test for COVID-19 testing. The CDC finally admitted the test does not differentiate between the flu and COVID virus.

OmigodCron!, Doubling daily!, Is either sniffles or symptomless, or?

So, Who Is On First? Covid! Common Cold! This year's Flu!

Just in time for Brandon's latest payment to his ChiCom overlords for a few billion PCR tests arriving in America, soon just for you and me!

Yeah, my voltmeter doesn't give me the barometric pressure either.

But I'm smart enough not to expect it to.

This ranks very high among the stupidest anti-vax misrepresentations of the year, but there's still a couple of days left to top it!!

The overtesting is what is bizarre to me. We should never test someone for an symptomatic virus. We do screen for awful diseases such as colon cancer but with everyone testing themselves a zillion times a day who cares. It probably means that you have such a quantitatively low infection that it is insignificant.

It’s like nexrad radar. All of the sudden there are tornado warning based on radar indicated rotation. But if all the warnings not a lot hit the ground and cause problems. So now we have warnings that specify radar confirmed instead of radar indicated. Or spotter report.

When we are able to ascertain data the next question must be what is the relevance of the data. And I think this is where we have gone off the rails. I bet we all have had a ton of infections we didn’t test for and didn’t care about. That is where we are now

The only silver lining is the CDC seems to be throwing in the towel with their new guidance and starting to halt testing.

I'll make it easy for you, banned liberal troll formerly known as Mojo.

What that means is, if you got the flu, the test can mark you down for the covid. But interestingly enough, it didn't work the other way around. Even you know the flu all but disappeared for the past two years. There was ONLY the covid. Cause of the tests, you see. The ones that can't differntiate between the flu and covid.

Now do you get it?

Sure it can. Are you positive you deciphered the message correctly on that one?

This announcement egg my and the decision to eithdauthe test came out in July. Why did they keep the hysteria going until December, the deadline?

There’s got to be criminal charges for this.

In the News/Activism forum, on a thread titled CDC Withdraws Use of PCR Test for COVID and Finally Admits the Test Can Not Differentiate Between the Flu and COVID Virusbagster wrote:
Hey Ransomnote. I know you're busy educating the vaxtards. I'll accept all apologies from them for calling you everything but a white man when you tried to tell them this over and over and over again.

Okay line up right here, boys.

The CDC 'admitted' it in August and October, too. The MSM makes sure it doesn't matter. The Biden Regime knew that from the start so the CDC can admit anything it wants to, the MSM will cover for them, and nothing will change.

FDA openly admits that the infamous PCR test for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) was developed with what appears to be genetic material from a common cold virus.

Actually, the CDC publicly admitted the PCR doesn't work but decided to keep using the test through December 31 until Bill Gates and George Soros' new testing company can start handling testing. I'm completely serious - the CDC has publicly admitted to continuing to rely on tests it knows are not accurate to give time for the Soros/Gates weaponized testing program to start. :/

FDA document admits “covid” PCR test was developed without isolated covid samples for test calibration, effectively admitting it’s testing something else

It also very likely means all these ‘reports’ of Omicron cases are fake, too......

Yea, pretty sure. Check this out from the CDC website (you know you love the CDC website)....

...adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses.

Which implies exactly what about the current tests? Put on your thinking cap.

Also which, if you speak Clinton, which luckily I do, translates to....

Finally Admits the Test Can Not Differentiate Between the Flu and COVID Virus

On that note, I'd like your alternative explanation for why the eleventy billion flu cases that are usual per year, became three all of a sudden when the covids crept into our universe. If not fake testing, then what?

Don't tell me, better hand washing? Social distancing? Masks? Quarantines? And if any of that, why was the flu the only victim of man's defensive tactics, and not the covids?

BBefore you give your ridiculous answer, maybe its best if you think really, really hard. There will be other covid threads you can sell your vax shilling wares on. This one is bad for you.

And now I will explain to you exactly what it is you're shilling for. Where the world is under this derp state/China psychological operation and bio agent attack. These bogus tests are just one aspect of the game....

It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.

I wouldn't be surprised if you were in black and white.

Seems they are not removing the test or approval, just cancelling their request that the test be fully approved/
