Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, head of the World Health Organization’s emerging diseases and zoonosis unit could not point to a single case of asymptomatic transmission..

Asymptomatic transmission of covid did not occur at all, study of 10 million people finds.. The conclusion is not that asymptomatic spread is rare or that the science is uncertain. The study revealed something that hardly ever happens in these kinds of studies. There was not one documented case. Forget rare..

And do we cut that number by 75% due to false positives?

Most of those who tested positive for antibodies were in their late 30s or early 40s, which researchers say is significant given that younger people are believed to be at lower risk for serious illness, or symptoms, from COVID-19. These people may be unknowingly driving spread of the virus, the researchers said.

That last line is a bald-faced lie. Some "Researcher" with a degree in what?

The belief that asymptomatic people can spread or even the principal driver of spreading CV is the basis of all the pandemic mitigation protocols (masking, social distancing, lockdowns, etc.). If the powers that be admit asymptomatic spread isn’t a factor, then they also have to admit they screwed up royally. Anyone expect the politicians to do so?

That would make the death rate miniscule. Mask up!

Fauxcy, CDC, NIH, FDA are all guilty of dereliction of duty in not providing timely Science regarding the Pandemic in any number of ways.

Starting, Big Time, with test development and field use of same.

So....

TWICE as many people had the virus than they let on?

Doesn’t that lower the fatality rate substantially??? -Which was already LESS than 1%...

But... we’re supposed to be frightened for our lives still, right?

Both the Austrians and Italians concluded this antibody ratio around six months ago....nothing new.

"The primary means of transmission of this virus is the asymptomatic population -- the patient [who] is unaware of their infectious status and is therefore at risk of unknowing spreading the virus,"

No proof, and in fact more than one peer reviewed study confirmed that asymptomatic cases are not major avenues of infection. Infection requires some level of viral load, close contact exposure, and some period of time. One of the reasons asymptomatic persons are asymptomatic is the viral load they received and/or the viral load they have due to their own antibodies is generally too weak to issue a significant infectious viral load to others. When and if they develop symptoms (which MOST due not) they may be infectious to others.

I don’t trust any of this. Studies are so crooked now.

That's what I've been saying all along. We have been building herd immunity all along.

Give the teachers the shot. Open the damn schools. No masks. No 6 ft...or is it 3 now?

How convenient. They need a new narrative to keep the fear going. Asymptomatic are spreaders now.

So did all of the 7% of people who tested positive for antibodies not ever test positive for the virus when and if they had to take tests for work?

Help me out with the math here. I admit to being a math dummy.

If they are trying to extrapolate from this to the larger population, wouldn’t the number of people who have antibodies to C19 and not know they had it be closer to 26 million versus 16 million?

350 million times 7% ?????

And another thing: How many of the people these people live came down with the ‘rona?

If people are largely 'asymptomatic,' then why is it considered dangerous - or a 'public' health hazard?............

Perhaps the ChiCom Flu isn’t novel? Could there be a level of immunity already in the population from other similarly structured viruses?

Without question this disease has a political agenda. It’s difficult to discern what is factual and fake.

So we’re trying to make people MORE scared by saying non-symptom patients arespreaders.

But this also means THIS DAMN BUG AINT THE BLACK PLAGUE!

My cousin was just discharged from the COVID ward after 2 months of care. They told him he is the first COVID patient to leave alive.

I will avoid that hospital.

What it really means is that we reached herd immunity several months ago. The Wuhan lab needs to get moving on COVID-21 if the Democrats plan to keep their social control program going much longer.
