Peer-Reviewed Study in Germany CRUSHES the COVID-19 Narrative Around PCR Tests Accuracy
We all remember mid-2020 through all of 2021 when every news channel, it seemed, had a running scoreboard with the daily infections and daily deaths allegedly caused by COVID-19, remaining pinned as a sidebar even when the stories being covered were wholly independent from the ‘pandemic’.
The entire COVID-19 hysteria was exacerbated by widespread testing at the urging of global non-profits and non-governmental organizations and at the U.S. taxpayers’ expense. So long as the Mockingbird Media could increment those “Daily Infected” numbers each night for primetime television.
Scientific organizations such as Science.org criticized the U.S. for inadequate testing in late February 2020, comparing the 1.6 million tests-per-week capability of China with just “459 tests since the epidemic began” in the United States.
That publication went as far as quoting an In-Q-Tel employee, Luciana Borio, saying that the “CDC normally ‘gets the ball rolling’ with diagnostics because it has the expertise and the biosafety laboratories to handle dangerous novel level pathogens. In-Q-Tel was the “first government-sponsored venture capital firm” chartered by the Central Intelligence Agency.
A PubMed editorial in December 2020 stated that, “The number of positive molecular diagnostic tests, which are largely based on real-time (RT) PCR assays that detect genetic material of the causative agent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), still forms the basis for reporting both symptomatic and asymptomatic cases worldwide.”
The Nobel Prize-winning biochemist who invented the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 1983 had previously warned several times that PCR “can find almost anything in anybody”. Of course these statements were quickly “fact-checked” and “debunked” by outlets like USAToday and The Journal, mainly claiming the cited quotes were “missing context” and that Mullis was specifically referring to the HIV virus and that “health experts say PCR tests are accurate and reliable in detecting COVID-19.”
