    Yet the guidance for quarantining and CDC’s case numbers was based on them all this time CDC head Rochelle Walensky admitted Wednesday that the agency has rejigged its guidance, including cutting COVID isolation times in half, based on the fact that PCR tests are producing massive amounts of false positives.Noting that PCR tests for COVID can stay positive for up to 12 weeks after infection, Walensky stated “we would have people in isolation for a very long time if we were relying on PCRs.”Er yeah, that’s been happening for two years now.It’s a startling admission given that, as pointed out...

    Rapid tests causing grief in state with highest vaccination rate. Emergency rooms in Vermont are being overwhelmed with people who have tested positive for COVID but have no symptoms, bolstering the criticism that mass testing amid a pandemic is counterproductive. Vermont, with about 77% of the population vaccinated, has the nation's highest rate.. Vermonters who take the rapid tests and test positive for COVID-19 are "clogging up emergency rooms." Dr. Rick Hildebrant, medical director of the emergency department at the Rutland Regional Medical Center, said people should go to the ER only if they have a positive test and are...

    Researchers wanted to know why some hospitalized patients were still testing positive long after recovery ALBANY — A new study out of Albany Medical Center and Albany Medical College found that the standard test used to diagnose COVID-19 is sensitive enough to detect the coronavirus for days and even weeks after it’s no longer infectious. The study, which looked at a small sample of 14 Albany Med patients being treated for COVID-19, set out to determine why some were still testing positive for the virus long after they had recovered from their infections. Doctors theorized that the standard test used...
  • CDC Internal Document Indicates There Never Was a Test For Covid-19

    In a shocking revelation first reported by Dan Dicks of Press for Truth (Canada), an FDA document admits that the CDC and FDA conspired to fabricate a covid-19 testing protocol using human cells combined with common cold virus fragments because they had no physical samples of the SARS-CoV-2 “covid” virus available.Without physical reference material to use for calibration and confirmation, the test has zero scientific basis in physical reality. And all the PCR analysis based on this protocol is utterly fraudulent, flagging people as “positive” for covid when they merely possess tiny quantities of RNA fragments from other coronavirus strains...

    Droplets of orange juice can break lateral flow tests and show a positive result .. Viral videos on TikTok have encouraged children across the UK to try the trend.. Schools have warned parents to be 'vigilant' when their children are tested .. Pupils have been using fruit juice to get false positive Covid-19 test results as schools warn parents to be 'vigilant'. When droplets of orange juice or fizzy drinks like coca-cola are placed on a lateral flow test it can produce a positive result because the acidity of the drink destroys the antibody proteins in the test. And although...
  • 'We are flying blind': Fauci was warned in March 2020 of potential false positives in COVID-19 tests

    White House coronavirus adviser and longtime federal infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci was warned as early as March of 2020 that tests widely used to diagnose COVID-19 could suffer from high levels of false positive results, a problem that was confirmed by the World Health Organization earlier this year. The warning was given in a Mar. 22, 2020 email to Fauci from Sin Hang Lee, the director of the Milford Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory in Milford, Conn. The message was part of a large batch of emails and other records recently obtained by Judicial Watch and the Daily Caller News Foundation....

    American Thinker ^ | 02/25/2021 | Thomas T. Siler, M.D.
    It is spoken across our land in constant refrain, "We are just following the science." Unfortunately, there has been only selective reporting of the science related to COVID-19 that has led to unnecessary fear and hysteria. Major media outlets seem to pick the science that supports a narrative and ignores completely other important scientific findings. Some government health authorities seem to pick the science that supports their policies for masks, lockdowns, treatments, and testing and ignore other science that would lead to less onerous and destructive policies restricting our personal freedoms. Having a rational discussion of ALL the science would...

    Reported infections are down an astounding 30 to 40 percent now that the political season is over Since President Biden’s inauguration, the infection rates in the COVID pandemic have plummeted by between 30 and 40 percent, a statistic that stands opposed to Joe Biden’s prediction of a “dark winter.” Reports of COVID infections and hospitalizations are on the decline around the world. Cases of the virus are down 30 percent from last in the United States alone. The United States averaged 141,146 cases per day over the past week. This is a 30 percent decline from the average two weeks...

    Oxford Academic ^ | 12/03/20 | T Jefferson, E A Spencer, J Brassey, C Heneghan
    A systematic review published 12/3/20 by the Oxford U has confirmed that cov2 rtPCR testing patient sample cycle thresholds >30 are associated with NEGATIVE viral cultures. What does that mean? It means that roughly 80% of all "positives" being reported in your state/region are likely non-infectious and clinically meaningless. If health authoritarians changed the testing standard by lowering the cycle threshold (CT) cutoff to less than "30", cases would magically drop 80+ percent. Excerpt from the study: ..."Complete live viruses are necessary for transmission, not the fragments identified by PCR. Those with high cycle threshold are unlikely to have infectious...

    I’ve been saying this for 9 months. Don’t believe the COVID case numbers. It’s a wall-to-wall scam. The situation we’re facing is urgent right now. Red flags. Alarm bells. Politicians all over the US and the world are using “rising case numbers” to drive people back into lockdowns. The news media are trumpeting these reports of case numbers. THE CASE NUMBERS COME FROM THE TESTS. AND FROM EYEBALL DIAGNOSIS. Eyeball diagnosis can mean a doctor observes the patient has a cough, or chills and fever. That’s all. That’s all a doctor needs to make a diagnosis of COVID. That’s a...

    According to The New York Times, potentially 90 percent of those who have tested positive for COVID-19 have such insignificant amounts of the virus present in their bodies that such individuals do not need to isolate nor are they candidates for contact tracing. Leading public health experts are now concerned that overtesting is responsible for misdiagnosing a huge number of people with harmless amounts of the virus in their systems.” “’Most of these people are not likely to be contagious…’ warns The Times.” Yes, that’s what the NY Times is confessing (8/29) [2]: “Some of the nation’s leading public health...

    0 Tests for Covid-19 that show on-the-spot results in 15 to 30 minutes are about to be rolled out across the world, potentially saving many thousands of lives and slowing the pandemic in both poor and rich countries. In a triumph for a global initiative to get vital drugs and vaccines to fight the virus, 120m rapid antigen tests from two companies will be supplied to low- and middle-income countries for $5 (£3.90) each or even less. The tests, which look like a pregnancy test, with two blue lines displayed for positive, are read by a health worker. One test...

    In the past, our reports raising questions about the accuracy of COVID-19 tests have been met with accusations of 'fearmongering' and spreading 'misinformation'. But not today. That's because new research from the University of Oxford’s Center for Evidence-Based Medicine and the University of the West of England has found that the swab-based technique used for most COVID-19 testing is at risk of returning "false positives" since copies of the virus's RNA detected by the tests might simply be dead, inactive material from a weeks-old infection. Although patients infected with COVID-19 are typically only infectious for a week or less,...

    "...The initial DNA test result that helped convict Durham was proven to have been a false positive. The error arose from mis- interpretation. The laboratory had failed to completely separate male from female DNA during differential extraction of the semen stain. The victim’s alleles, when combined with those of the true rapist, produced an apparent genotype that matched Durham’s. The laboratory mistook this mixed profile for a single source result, and thereby falsely incriminated an innocent man..."

    The existing background check law has a tremendous chilling effect on the exercise of Second Amendment rights. Most of the people denied the right to buy a gun are false positives. That is, they are falsely denied. It is a travesty of justice that tens of thousands of people are denied their rights by this system every year. MyFoxTampa reports:  The law requires licensed gun dealers to check with law enforcement before making a sale, which in this state is the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. The goal is to prevent felons -- and people who don't qualify -- from...
