Say what??? Is there a test that can determine different variants???

[Hildy]

NO.

[dblshot]

From or with?

[throwthebumsout]

“Is there a test that can determine different variants???”

It’s the death test.
Die = Delta
Live = Omicron

[Celtic Conservative]

In Michigan, where positive tests and hospitalizations are high, the death rate is still rapidly declining.

There might be a test to differentiate from the supposed variants, but I doubt they are doing it. I believe they are labeling vaccine deaths as covid deaths.

[babble-on]

There are such tests, but not simple to administer like the basic positivity tests. Instead they take representative samples and extrapolate those figures to the wider population. Not perfect, but good.

I wish they would all stfu.

The CDC is just as Fake as their vaccine

***Not my information***

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

When one can refer to the sometimes “beloved” CDC and find information such as this, those who cite the CDC as secular gospel ignore Data such as this. This would include all the previous “variants” breathlessly announced in past months.

Continuing the citation: “Results regarding the presence of the Omicron variant, or any other variant, should not be reported back to patients or providers and cannot be used for diagnostic purposes.”

CANNOT BE USED FOR DIAGNOSTIC PURPOSE.

Odd, that.

So the Biden Administration is killing people by removing the monclonal antibody treatments from use under the false pretext that they are not effective for Omicron variant

[Sarah Barracuda]

There is no test..my sister’s entire household got the china virus..they paid 250 bucks a piece to get a test result within an hour..she called back wanting to know what variant they had and was told there is no way to find out

2600+ died from covid yesterday so not out of the woods yet.

[jjotto]

It’s not exactly a test that will give immediate information, but there is genomes sequencing of representative samples on the assumption that proportions of variants would be roughly the same at any point in time.
Severe and fatal cases would be easiest to get samples from. Israel also has found Delta to be a higher proportion of serious cases.

“1,716 deaths per day from Covid”

Once again, do they distinguish “with Covid” from “from Covid”. If so, then how?

If not, using the same criteria, I’d estimate that there are about 5500 deaths per day “from the vaccines” (gasp), since that’s roughly how many died “with the vaccines”. Either be consistent, or lose credibility.

[setter]

Looks like you survived covid.

[JudgemAll]

1700 deaths a day? Car accidents are about 100 per day. I seriously doubt this number of 20 times deadly accidents.

By the way, I was told the vaccine caused about a third to a half as much as car accidents, so, about 40 per day die of the vaccine, which is HUGE compared to how vaccines in the past have been allowed. A mere 60 deaths in a vaccine in a few weeks in the 70s got the vaccine recalled.

My hunch from what I see every day is that this vaccine kills about as much as the disease does.

[gas_dr]

Delta and omicron present very differently. It is clinically obvious what variant a patient has. The labs look different. The radiology looks different. People die of delta. People are hospitalized with omicron. Not because of it. Most omicron in hospital is incidental testing findings.

[catnipman]

“’The deaths that we’re seeing now are still from Delta’: CDC chief says the Omicron variant is NOT responsible for the 1,700 daily Covid deaths in the US”

deaths that ALL could have been prevented if Covid Joe hadn’t completely bought up the entire monoclonal antibody supply and then withheld ALL of it from the states because they CLAIM “it doesn’t work on omicron” ...

by deliberately withholding the only effective “approved” therapy for Delta, the National Socialist Democrat Party has deliberately added another powerful tool to their murder arsenal ...

[odawg]

Most of these deaths from covid are attributable to a lack of early, appropriate treatment.

[Sarcazmo]

They’re just making this up as they go along.
