principiascientificinternational--2020-08-06--COVID Tests Scientifically Fraudulent, Epidemic of False Positives

Polymerase Chain Reaction ( RT-PCR ) tests are used worldwide to “ diagnose ” Sars-Cov-2 infection .
An in-depth investigation reveals clear scientific evidence proving that these tests are not accurate and create a statistically significant percentage of false positives .
Positive results more likely indicate “ ordinary respiratory diseases like the common cold.
” In fact , American biochemist Kary Mullis , now deceased , who won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for creating PCR technology , repeatedly stated throughout his career that it should not be used to test for viruses .
This technology is designed to replicate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infections .
Multiple U.S. Intelligence Community contacts have verified the accuracy of the extensive investigative report , conducted by award-winning journalist Torsten Engelbrecht , featured below .
While they do take issue with some of the reports verbiage , they corroborate the main findings : PCR tests should not be relied upon for accurate results and create a significant percentage of false positives .
We also feature a New York Times report from 2007 , entitled , “ Faith in Quick Test Leads to Epidemic That Wasn ’ t , ” which also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are , featuring many shocking statements from medical experts on the use of these tests , clearly laying out how they result in false positives and lead to dangerous exaggerations and false alarms .
Note : We are NOT reporting that the coronavirus is a complete hoax .
You should take precautions and consult your doctor for best safety practices .
We are reporting , as the evidence reveals , that the number of COVID-positive results and the number of COVID-related deaths have been significantly exaggerated .
Based on our findings , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Disease Control and Prevention , and the Food and Drug Administration should not be trusted or relied upon for accurate information , and needs to be immediately investigated and held accountable for Crimes Against Humanity .
Fact 1 ) As thousands of Doctors worldwide have proven , there are several effective treatments for this coronavirus .
( source one , two , three , four , five , six ) Fact 2 ) The effective treatments have been censored and suppressed for reasons including but not limited to : For all of these @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suppressed ; leading to the unnecessary deaths of thousands of people .
Fact 3 ) The handling of this virus has resulted in an all-out economic disaster that has destroyed the livelihood and financial security of billions of people worldwide , leading to unprecedented rates of debt , depression , drug abuse , overdoses and suicides .
Meanwhile , the CARES Act and global central banking operations in response to this “ crisis ” have resulted in an unprecedented consolidation of wealth by the world ’ s richest 0.01 % .
( source @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) Fact 4 ) The lockdown , quarantine and closer of schools , religious services , sports , recreational activities , social events , shopping , food and workplaces , along with social distancing measures and mandatory mask use , in combination with criminally negligent 24/7 mainstream media virus fear propaganda , amounts to psychological torture and abuse on an unprecedented scale , which has torn apart and separated many families , and has done significant damage to the psychological wellbeing of billions of people , particularly young children , worldwide .
( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cash-strapped hospitals have been financially incentivized to record as many COVID-related deaths as possible , resulting in a statistically significant number of falsely reported COVID-related deaths .
On top of that , hospitals have also been heavily incentivized to put people on ventilators , which has also contributed to thousands of additional unnecessary deaths .
( source one , two ) Now that we have a better understanding of the overall situation , of the Crimes Against Humanity that have been strategically implemented thus far , let ’ s look at the science @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Here ’ s is Torsten Engelbrecht ’ s report : Though the whole world relies on RT-PCR to “ diagnose ” Sars-Cov-2 infection , the science is clear : they are not fit for purpose .
Lockdowns and hygienic measures around the world are based on numbers of cases and mortality rates created by the SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests used to identify “ positive ” patients , whereby “ positive ” is usually equated with “ infected.
” However , when looking closely at the facts , the conclusion is that these PCR tests @ @ @ @ @ @ @ determine an alleged infection by SARS-CoV-2 .
At the media briefing on COVID-19 on March 16 , 2020 , the WHO Director General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said : The message was spread through headlines around the world , for instance by Reuters and the BBC .
Still on May 3 , the moderator of the Heute Journal — one of the most important news magazines on German television — was passing the mantra of the corona dogma on to his audience with the admonishing words : This indicates that the belief in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so strong that it equals a religion that tolerates virtually no contradiction .
As Walter Lippmann , the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and perhaps the most influential journalist of the 20th century said : “ Where all think alike , no one thinks very much.
” So to start , it is very remarkable that Kary Mullis himself , the inventor of the Polymerase Chain Reaction ( PCR ) technology , did not think alike .
His invention got him the Nobel prize in chemistry in 1993 .
Unfortunately , Mullis passed away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but there is no doubt that the biochemist regarded the PCR as inappropriate to detect a viral infection .
The reason is that the intended use of the PCR was , and still is , to apply it as a manufacturing technique , being able to replicate DNA sequences millions and billions of times , and not as a diagnostic tool to detect viruses .
How declaring virus pandemics based on PCR tests can end in disaster was described by Gina Kolata in her 2007 New York Times article , “ Faith @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wasn ’ t. ” ( full article below ) Moreover , it is worth mentioning that the PCR tests used to identify so-called COVID-19 patients presumably infected by what is called SARS-CoV-2 do not have a valid gold standard to compare them with .
This is a fundamental point .
Tests need to be evaluated to determine their preciseness — strictly speaking their “ sensitivity ” [ 1 ] and “ specificity ” — by comparison with a “ gold standard , ” meaning the most accurate method available .
As an example @ @ @ @ @ @ @ standard would be the pregnancy itself .
As Australian infectious diseases specialist Sanjaya Senanayake , for example , stated in an ABC TV interview in an answer to the question “ How accurate is the [ COVID-19 ] testing ?
” : Jessica C. Watson from Bristol University confirms this .
In her paper “ Interpreting a COVID-19 test result , ” published recently in The British Medical Journal , she writes that there is a “ lack of such a clear-cut ‘ gold-standard ’ for COVID-19 testing.
” But instead of classifying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and COVID-19 diagnosis , or instead of pointing out that only a virus , proven through isolation and purification , can be a solid gold standard , Watson claims in all seriousness that , “ pragmatically ” COVID-19 diagnosis itself , remarkably including PCR testing itself , “ may be the best available ‘ gold standard.
’ ” But this is not scientifically sound .
Apart from the fact that it is downright absurd to take the PCR test itself as part of the gold standard to evaluate the PCR test , there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , as even people such as Thomas Löscher , former head of the Department of Infection and Tropical Medicine at the University of Munich and member of the Federal Association of German Internists , conceded to us .
[ 2 ] If there are no distinctive specific symptoms for COVID-19 , COVID-19 diagnosis — contrary to Watson ’ s statement — can not be suitable for serving as a valid gold standard .
In addition , “ experts ” such as Watson overlook the fact that only virus isolation , i.e .
an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gold standard .
That is why I asked Watson how COVID-19 diagnosis “ may be the best available gold standard , ” if there are no distinctive specific symptoms for COVID-19 , and also whether the virus itself , that is virus isolation , wouldn ’ t be the best available/possible gold standard , but she hasn ’ t answered these questions yet – despite multiple requests .
She has not yet responded to our rapid response post on her article in which we address exactly the same points , either , though @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ I will try to post a reply later this week when I have a chance.
” No proof for the RNA being of viral origin Now the question is : What is required first for virus isolation/proof ?
We need to know where the RNA for which the PCR tests are calibrated comes from .
As textbooks ( e.g.
, White/Fenner .
Medical Virology , 1986 , p. 9 ) as well as leading virus researchers such as Luc Montagnier or Dominic Dwyer state , particle purification — i.e .
the separation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not that object , as for instance Nobel laureate Marie Curie purified 100 mg of radium chloride in 1898 by extracting it from tons of pitchblende — is an essential pre-requisite for proving the existence of a virus , and thus to prove that the RNA from the particle in question comes from a new virus .
The reason for this is that PCR is extremely sensitive , which means it can detect even the smallest pieces of DNA or RNA — but it can not determine where these particles came from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Because the PCR tests are calibrated for gene sequences ( in this case RNA sequences because SARS-CoV-2 is believed to be a RNA virus ) , we have to know that these gene snippets are part of the looked-for virus .
And to know that , correct isolation and purification of the presumed virus has to be executed .
Hence , we have asked the science teams of the relevant papers which are referred to in the context of SARS-CoV-2 for proof whether the electron-microscopic shots depicted in their in vitro experiments @ @ @ @ @ @ @ single team could answer that question with “ yes ” — and nobody said purification was not a necessary step .
We only got answers like “ No , we did not obtain an electron micrograph showing the degree of purification.
” We asked several study authors “ Do your electron micrographs show the purified virus ?
” , they gave the following responses : Regarding the mentioned papers it is clear that what is shown in the electron micrographs ( EMs ) is the end result of the experiment , meaning there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have made EMs from .
That is to say , if the authors of these studies concede that their published EMs do not show purified particles , then they definitely do not possess purified particles claimed to be viral .
[ In this context , it has to be remarked that some researchers use the term “ isolation ” in their papers , but the procedures described therein do not represent a proper isolation ( purification ) process .
Consequently , in this context the term “ isolation ” is misused . ]
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the principal , early 2020 papers claiming discovery of a new coronavirus concede they had no proof that the origin of the virus genome was viral-like particles or cellular debris , pure or impure , or particles of any kind .
In other words , the existence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA is based on faith , not fact .
We have also contacted Dr Charles Calisher , who is a seasoned virologist .
In 2001 , Science published an “ impassioned plea… to the younger generation ” from several veteran virologists , among them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s why we asked Dr Calisher whether he knows one single paper in which SARS-CoV-2 has been isolated and finally really purified .
His answer : This actually means that one can not conclude that the RNA gene sequences , which the scientists took from the tissue samples prepared in the mentioned in vitro trials and for which the PCR tests are finally being “ calibrated , ” belong to a specific virus — in this case SARS-CoV-2 .
In addition , there is no scientific proof that those RNA sequences are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ COVID-19 .
In order to establish a causal connection , one way or the other , i.e .
beyond virus isolation and purification , it would have been absolutely necessary to carry out an experiment that satisfies the four Koch ’ s postulates .
But there is no such experiment , as Amory Devereux and Rosemary Frei recently revealed for OffGuardian .
The necessity to fulfill these postulates regarding SARS-CoV-2 is demonstrated not least by the fact that attempts have been made to fulfill them .
But even researchers claiming they have done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ succeed .
One example is a study published in Nature on May 7 .
This trial , besides other procedures which render the study invalid , did not meet any of the postulates .
For instance , the alleged “ infected ” laboratory mice did not show any relevant clinical symptoms clearly attributable to pneumonia , which according to the third postulate should actually occur if a dangerous and potentially deadly virus was really at work there .
The slight bristles and weight loss , which were observed temporarily in the animals are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have been caused by the procedure itself , but also because the weight went back to normal again .
Also , no animal died except those they killed to perform the autopsies .
And let ’ s not forget : These experiments should have been done before developing a test , which is not the case .
Revealingly , none of the leading German representatives of the official theory about SARS-Cov-2/COVID-19 — the Robert Koch-Institute ( RKI ) , Alexander S. Kekulé ( University of Halle ) , Hartmut Hengel and Ralf Bartenschlager @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the aforementioned Thomas Löscher , Ulrich Dirnagl ( Charité Berlin ) or Georg Bornkamm ( virologist and professor emeritus at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Munich ) — could answer the following question : If the particles that are claimed to be to be SARS-CoV-2 have not been purified , how do you want to be sure that the RNA gene sequences of these particles belong to a specific new virus ?
Particularly , if there are studies showing that substances such as antibiotics that are added to the test tubes in the in vitro experiments @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stress ” the cell culture in a way that new gene sequences are being formed that were not previously detectable — an aspect that Nobel laureate Barbara McClintock already drew attention to in her Nobel Lecture back in 1983 .
It should not go unmentioned that we finally got the Charité – the employer of Christian Drosten , Germany ’ s most influential virologist in respect of COVID-19 , advisor to the German government and co-developer of the PCR test , which was the first to be “ accepted ” ( not validated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to answer questions on the topic .
But we didn ’ t get answers until June 18 , 2020 , after months of non-response .
In the end , we achieved it only with the help of Berlin lawyer Viviane Fischer .
Regarding our question : “ Has the Charité convinced itself that appropriate particle purification was carried out ?
, ” the Charité concedes that they didn ’ t use purified particles .
Although they claim “ virologists at the Charité are sure that they are testing for the virus , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ . )
they state : That means they just assumed the RNA was viral .
Incidentally , the Corman et al .
paper , published on January 23 , 2020 didn ’ t even go through a proper peer review process , nor were the procedures outlined therein accompanied by controls — although it is only through these two things that scientific work becomes really solid .
It is also certain that we can not know the false positive rate of the PCR tests without widespread testing of people who certainly do not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ method which is independent of the test ( having a solid gold standard ) .
Therefore , it is hardly surprising that there are several papers illustrating irrational test results .
For example , already in February the health authority in China ’ s Guangdong province reported that people have fully recovered from illness blamed on COVID-19 , started to test “ negative , ” and then tested “ positive ” again .
A month later , a paper published in the Journal of Medical Virology showed that 29 out of 610 patients @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to 6 test results that flipped between “ negative , ” “ positive ” and “ dubious.
” A third example is a study from Singapore in which tests were carried out almost daily on 18 patients .
The majority went from “ positive ” to “ negative ” back to “ positive ” at least once , and up to five times in one patient .
Even Wang Chen , president of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences , conceded in February that the PCR tests are “ only 30 to 50 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hang Lee from the Milford Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory sent a letter to the WHO ’ s coronavirus response team and to Anthony Fauci on March 22 , 2020 , saying that : In other words , even if we theoretically assume that these PCR tests can really detect a viral infection , the tests would be practically worthless , and would only cause an unfounded scare among the “ positive ” people tested .
This becomes also evident considering the positive predictive value ( PPV ) .
The PPV indicates the probability that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is truly “ positive ” ( ie .
has the supposed virus ) , and it depends on two factors : the prevalence of the virus in the general population and the specificity of the test , that is the percentage of people without disease in whom the test is correctly “ negative ” ( a test with a specificity of 95 % incorrectly gives a positive result in 5 out of 100 non-infected people ) .
With the same specificity , the higher the prevalence , the higher the PPV .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the journal Deutsches Ärzteblatt published an article in which the PPV has been calculated with three different prevalence scenarios .
The results must , of course , be viewed very critically , first because it is not possible to calculate the specificity without a solid gold standard , as outlined , and second because the calculations in the article are based on the specificity determined in the study by Jessica Watson , which is potentially worthless , as also mentioned .
But if you abstract from it , assuming that the underlying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that we know the prevalence , even the mainstream medical journal Deutsches Ärzteblatt reports that the SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests may have “ a shockingly low ” PPV .
In one of the three scenarios , figuring with an assumed prevalence of 3 % , the PPV was only 30 percent , which means that 70 percent of the people tested “ positive ” are not “ positive ” at all .
Yet “ they are prescribed quarantine , ” as even the Ärzteblatt notes critically… .
All this fits with the fact that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instance , concede in their files that the “ SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests ” are not suitable for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis .
In the “ CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus ( 2019-nCoV ) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel ” file from March 30 , 2020 , for example , it says : And the FDA admits that : “ positive results… do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses .
The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease.
” Remarkably , in the instruction manuals of PCR tests we can also read @ @ @ @ @ @ @ diagnostic test , as for instance in those by Altona Diagnostics and Creative Diagnostics .
[ 5 ] To quote another one , in the product announcement of the LightMix Modular Assays produced by TIB Molbiol — which were developed using the Corman et al .
protocol — and distributed by Roche , we read : Where is the evidence that the tests can measure the “ viral load ” ?
There is also reason to conclude that the PCR test from Roche and others can not even detect the targeted genes .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the RT-qPCR tests for SARS-COV-2 it says they are “ qualitative ” tests , contrary to the fact that the “ q ” in “ qPCR ” stands for “ quantitative.
” If these tests are not “ quantitative ” tests , they don ’ t show how many viral particles are in the body .
That is crucial because , in order to even begin talking about actual illness in the real world not only in a laboratory , the patient would need to have millions and millions of viral particles actively @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to say , the CDC , WHO , FDA or the RKI may assert that the tests can measure the so-called “ viral load , ” i.e .
how many viral particles are in the body .
“ But this has never been proven .
That is an enormous scandal , ” as the journalist Jon Rappoport points out .
This is not only because the term “ viral load ” is deception .
If you put the question , “ What is viral load ?
” , at a dinner party , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the bloodstream .
They ’ re surprised to learn it ’ s actually RNA molecules .
Also , to prove beyond any doubt that the PCR can measure how much a person is “ burdened ” with a disease-causing virus , the following experiment would have had to be carried out , which has not happened yet : You take , let ’ s say , a few hundred or even thousand people and remove tissue samples from them .
Make sure the people who take the samples do not perform the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who the patients are and what condition they ’ re in .
The testers run their PCR on the tissue samples .
In each case , they say which virus they found and how much of it they found .
Then , for example , in patients 29 , 86 , 199 , 272 , and 293 they found a great deal of what they claim is a virus .
Now we un-blind those patients .
They should all be sick , because they have so much virus replicating in their bodies .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ are they fit as a fiddle ?
With the help of the aforementioned lawyer Viviane Fischer , I finally got the Charité to answer the question of whether the test developed by Corman et al .
— the so-called “ Drosten PCR test ” — is a quantitative test .
But the Charité was not willing to answer this question “ yes.
” Instead , the Charité wrote : Furthermore , the “ Drosten PCR test ” uses the unspecific E-gene assay as preliminary assay , while the Institut Pasteur uses the same @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Corman et al.
, the E-gene assay is likely to detect all Asian viruses , while the other assays in both tests are supposed to be more specific for sequences labelled “ SARS-CoV-2.
” Besides the questionable purpose of having either a preliminary or a confirmatory test that is likely to detect all Asian viruses , at the beginning of April the WHO changed the algorithm , recommending that from then on a test can be regarded as “ positive ” even if just the E-gene assay ( which is likely to detect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ positive ” result .
This means that a confirmed unspecific test result is officially sold as specific .
That change of algorithm increased the “ case ” numbers .
Tests using the E-gene assay are produced for example by Roche , TIB Molbiol and R-Biopharm .
High CQ values make the test results even more meaningless Another essential problem is that many PCR tests have a “ cycle quantification ” ( Cq ) value of over 35 , and some , including the “ Drosten PCR test , ” even have a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ specifies how many cycles of DNA replication are required to detect a real signal from biological samples .
“ Cq values higher than 40 are suspect because of the implied low efficiency and generally should not be reported , ” as it says in the MIQE guidelines .
MIQE stands for “ Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments , ” a set of guidelines that describe the minimum information necessary for evaluating publications on Real-Time PCR , also called quantitative PCR , or qPCR .
The inventor himself , Kary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : The MIQE guidelines have been developed under the aegis of Stephen A. Bustin , Professor of Molecular Medicine , a world-renowned expert on quantitative PCR and author of the book A-Z of Quantitative PCR , which has been called “ the bible of qPCR.
” In a recent podcast interview Bustin points out that “ the use of such arbitrary Cq cut-offs is not ideal , because they may be either too low ( eliminating valid results ) or too high ( increasing false “ positive ” results ) .
” According @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 20s to 30s should be aimed at , and there is concern regarding the reliability of the results for any Cq over 35 .
If the Cq value gets too high , it becomes difficult to distinguish real signal from background , for example due to reactions of primers and fluorescent probes , and hence there is a higher probability of false positives .
Moreover , among other factors that can alter the result , before starting with the actual PCR , in case you are looking for presumed RNA viruses such as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to complementary DNA ( cDNA ) with the enzyme Reverse Transcriptase — hence the “ RT ” at the beginning of “ PCR ” or “ qPCR.
” But this transformation process is “ widely recognized as inefficient and variable , ” as Jessica Schwaber from the Centre for Commercialization of Regenerative Medicine in Toronto and two research colleagues pointed out in a 2019 paper .
Stephen A. Bustin acknowledges problems with PCR in a comparable way .
For example , he pointed to the problem that in the course of the conversion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amount of DNA obtained with the same RNA base material can vary widely , even by a factor of 10 ( see above interview ) .
Considering that the DNA sequences get doubled at every cycle , even a slight variation becomes magnified and can thus alter the result , annihilating the test ’ s reliable informative value .
So how can it be that those who claim the PCR tests are highly meaningful for so-called COVID-19 diagnosis blind out the fundamental inadequacies of these tests — even if they are confronted with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the apologists of the novel coronavirus hypothesis should have dealt with these questions before throwing the tests on the market and putting basically the whole world under lockdown , not least because these are questions that come to mind immediately for anyone with even a spark of scientific understanding .
Thus , the thought inevitably emerges that financial and political interests play a decisive role for this ignorance about scientific obligations .
NB , the WHO , for example has financial ties with drug companies , as the British Medical Journal showed in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ notorious corruption and conflicts of interest at WHO have continued , even grown ” since then .
The CDC as well , to take another big player , is obviously no better off .
Finally , the reasons and possible motives remain speculative , and many involved surely act in good faith ; but the science is clear : The numbers generated by these RT-PCR tests do not in the least justify frightening people who have been tested “ positive ” and imposing lockdown measures that plunge countless people into poverty and despair @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A “ positive ” result may have serious consequences for the patients as well , because then all non-viral factors are excluded from the diagnosis and the patients are treated with highly toxic drugs and invasive intubations .
Especially for elderly people and patients with pre-existing conditions such a treatment can be fatal , as we have outlined in the article “ Fatal Therapie.
” Without doubt excess mortality rates are caused by the therapy and by the lockdown measures , while the “ COVID-19 ” death statistics comprise also patients who died @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as COVID-19 only because of a “ positive ” test result whose value could not be more doubtful .

We also feature a New York Times report from 2007, entitled, “Faith in Quick Test Leads to Epidemic That Wasn’t,” which also clearly reveals how scientifically inaccurate PCR tests are, featuring many shocking statements from medical experts on the use of these tests, clearly laying out how they result in false positives and lead to dangerous exaggerations and false alarms.
Note: We are NOT reporting that the coronavirus is a complete hoax. You should take precautions and consult your doctor for best safety practices.
We are reporting, as the evidence reveals, that the number of COVID-positive results and the number of COVID-related deaths have been significantly exaggerated.
Based on our findings, the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Food and Drug Administration should not be trusted or relied upon for accurate information, and needs to be immediately investigated and held accountable for Crimes Against Humanity.
Fact 1) As thousands of Doctors worldwide have proven, there are several effective treatments for this coronavirus. (source one, two, three, four, five, six)
Fact 2) The effective treatments have been censored and suppressed for reasons including but not limited to:
a) They are inexpensive, i.e. Big Pharma can’t profit off of them; b) They completely derail the wider-agenda of those interests who are exploiting this virus to implement the most oppressive economic, “health” and surveillance system ever; c) There is an FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) law which only allows the mass “vaccination” program to continue if there are no other effective treatments. There is also a EUA “National Security” stipulation that requires a significant percentage of the population to be at risk of death, which is another reason why fraudulent false-positive testing is being used, as you will see below. (source)
For all of these reasons, the effective treatments have been suppressed; leading to the unnecessary deaths of thousands of people.
Fact 3) The handling of this virus has resulted in an all-out economic disaster that has destroyed the livelihood and financial security of billions of people worldwide, leading to unprecedented rates of debt, depression, drug abuse, overdoses and suicides. Meanwhile, the CARES Act and global central banking operations in response to this “crisis” have resulted in an unprecedented consolidation of wealth by the world’s richest 0.01%. (source one, two, three, four)
Fact 4) The lockdown, quarantine and closer of schools, religious services, sports, recreational activities, social events, shopping, food and workplaces, along with social distancing measures and mandatory mask use, in combination with criminally negligent 24/7 mainstream media virus fear propaganda, amounts to psychological torture and abuse on an unprecedented scale, which has torn apart and separated many families, and has done significant damage to the psychological wellbeing of billions of people, particularly young children, worldwide. (source)
Fact 5) Underfunded and cash-strapped hospitals have been financially incentivized to record as many COVID-related deaths as possible, resulting in a statistically significant number of falsely reported COVID-related deaths. On top of that, hospitals have also been heavily incentivized to put people on ventilators, which has also contributed to thousands of additional unnecessary deaths. (source one, two)

Now that we have a better understanding of the overall situation, of the Crimes Against Humanity that have been strategically implemented thus far, let’s look at the science that reveals the fraudulent testing process. Here’s is Torsten Engelbrecht’s report:
“COVID-19 PCR Tests are Scientifically Meaningless“
By Torsten Engelbrecht & Konstantin Demeter
Though the whole world relies on RT-PCR to “diagnose” Sars-Cov-2 infection, the science is clear: they are not fit for purpose.
Lockdowns and hygienic measures around the world are based on numbers of cases and mortality rates created by the SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests used to identify “positive” patients, whereby “positive” is usually equated with “infected.”
However, when looking closely at the facts, the conclusion is that these PCR tests are meaningless as a diagnostic tool to determine an alleged infection by SARS-CoV-2.
Unfounded “Test, test, test” Mantra
At the media briefing on COVID-19 on March 16, 2020, the WHO Director General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said:
“We have a simple message for all countries: test, test, test.”
The message was spread through headlines around the world, for instance by Reuters and the BBC.
Still on May 3, the moderator of the Heute Journal — one of the most important news magazines on German television — was passing the mantra of the corona dogma on to his audience with the admonishing words:
“Test, test, test — that is the credo at the moment, and it is the only way to really understand how much the coronavirus is spreading.”
This indicates that the belief in the validity of the PCR tests is so strong that it equals a religion that tolerates virtually no contradiction.
As Walter Lippmann, the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and perhaps the most influential journalist of the 20th century said: “Where all think alike, no one thinks very much.”
So to start, it is very remarkable that Kary Mullis himself, the inventor of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology, did not think alike. His invention got him the Nobel prize in chemistry in 1993.
Unfortunately, Mullis passed away last year at the age of 74, but there is no doubt that the biochemist regarded the PCR as inappropriate to detect a viral infection.
The reason is that the intended use of the PCR was, and still is, to apply it as a manufacturing technique, being able to replicate DNA sequences millions and billions of times, and not as a diagnostic tool to detect viruses.
How declaring virus pandemics based on PCR tests can end in disaster was described by Gina Kolata in her 2007 New York Times article, “Faith in Quick Test Leads to Epidemic That Wasn’t.” (full article below)
Lack of a valid gold standard
Moreover, it is worth mentioning that the PCR tests used to identify so-called COVID-19 patients presumably infected by what is called SARS-CoV-2 do not have a valid gold standard to compare them with.
This is a fundamental point. Tests need to be evaluated to determine their preciseness — strictly speaking their “sensitivity” [1] and “specificity” — by comparison with a “gold standard,” meaning the most accurate method available.
As an example, for a pregnancy test the gold standard would be the pregnancy itself. As Australian infectious diseases specialist Sanjaya Senanayake, for example, stated in an ABC TV interview in an answer to the question “How accurate is the [COVID-19] testing?”:
“If we had a new test for picking up [the bacterium] golden staph in blood, we’ve already got blood cultures, that’s our gold standard we’ve been using for decades, and we could match this new test against that. But for COVID-19 we don’t have a gold standard test.”
Jessica C. Watson from Bristol University confirms this. In her paper “Interpreting a COVID-19 test result,” published recently in The British Medical Journal, she writes that there is a “lack of such a clear-cut ‘gold-standard’ for COVID-19 testing.”
But instead of classifying the tests as unsuitable for SARS-CoV-2 detection and COVID-19 diagnosis, or instead of pointing out that only a virus, proven through isolation and purification, can be a solid gold standard, Watson claims in all seriousness that, “pragmatically” COVID-19 diagnosis itself, remarkably including PCR testing itself, “may be the best available ‘gold standard.’” But this is not scientifically sound.
Apart from the fact that it is downright absurd to take the PCR test itself as part of the gold standard to evaluate the PCR test, there are no distinctive specific symptoms for COVID-19, as even people such as Thomas Löscher, former head of the Department of Infection and Tropical Medicine at the University of Munich and member of the Federal Association of German Internists, conceded to us. [2]
If there are no distinctive specific symptoms for COVID-19, COVID-19 diagnosis — contrary to Watson’s statement — cannot be suitable for serving as a valid gold standard.
In addition, “experts” such as Watson overlook the fact that only virus isolation, i.e. an unequivocal virus proof, can be the gold standard.
That is why I asked Watson how COVID-19 diagnosis “may be the best available gold standard,” if there are no distinctive specific symptoms for COVID-19, and also whether the virus itself, that is virus isolation, wouldn’t be the best available/possible gold standard, but she hasn’t answered these questions yet – despite multiple requests. She has not yet responded to our rapid response post on her article in which we address exactly the same points, either, though she wrote us on June 2nd: “I will try to post a reply later this week when I have a chance.”
[She never replied.]
No proof for the RNA being of viral origin
Now the question is: What is required first for virus isolation/proof? We need to know where the RNA for which the PCR tests are calibrated comes from.
As textbooks (e.g., White/Fenner. Medical Virology, 1986, p. 9) as well as leading virus researchers such as Luc Montagnier or Dominic Dwyer state, particle purification — i.e. the separation of an object from everything else that is not that object, as for instance Nobel laureate Marie Curie purified 100 mg of radium chloride in 1898 by extracting it from tons of pitchblende — is an essential pre-requisite for proving the existence of a virus, and thus to prove that the RNA from the particle in question comes from a new virus.
The reason for this is that PCR is extremely sensitive, which means it can detect even the smallest pieces of DNA or RNA — but it cannot determine where these particles came from. That has to be determined beforehand.
Because the PCR tests are calibrated for gene sequences (in this case RNA sequences because SARS-CoV-2 is believed to be a RNA virus), we have to know that these gene snippets are part of the looked-for virus. And to know that, correct isolation and purification of the presumed virus has to be executed.
Hence, we have asked the science teams of the relevant papers which are referred to in the context of SARS-CoV-2 for proof whether the electron-microscopic shots depicted in their in vitro experiments show purified viruses.
But not a single team could answer that question with “yes” — and nobody said purification was not a necessary step. We only got answers like “No, we did not obtain an electron micrograph showing the degree of purification.”
We asked several study authors “Do your electron micrographs show the purified virus?”, they gave the following responses:
Study 1: Leo L. M. Poon; Malik Peiris. “Emergence of a novel human coronavirus threatening human health,” Nature Medicine, March 2020 Replying Author: Malik Peiris Date: May 12, 2020 Answer: “The image is the virus budding from an infected cell. It is not purified virus.” Study 2: Myung-Guk Han et al. “Identification of Coronavirus Isolated from a Patient in Korea with COVID-19,” Osong Public Health and Research Perspectives, February 2020 Replying Author: Myung-Guk Han Date: May 6, 2020 Answer: “We could not estimate the degree of purification because we do not purify and concentrate the virus cultured in cells.” Study 3: Wan Beom Park et al. “Virus Isolation from the First Patient with SARS-CoV-2 in Korea,” Journal of Korean Medical Science, February 24, 2020 Replying Author: Wan Beom Park Date: March 19, 2020 Answer: “We did not obtain an electron micrograph showing the degree of purification.” Study 4: Na Zhu et al., “A Novel Coronavirus from Patients with Pneumonia in China,” 2019, New England Journal of Medicine, February 20, 2020 Replying Author: Wenjie Tan Date: March 18, 2020 Answer: “[We show] an image of sedimented virus particles, not purified ones.”
Regarding the mentioned papers it is clear that what is shown in the electron micrographs (EMs) is the end result of the experiment, meaning there is no other result that they could have made EMs from.
That is to say, if the authors of these studies concede that their published EMs do not show purified particles, then they definitely do not possess purified particles claimed to be viral.
[In this context, it has to be remarked that some researchers use the term “isolation” in their papers, but the procedures described therein do not represent a proper isolation (purification) process. Consequently, in this context the term “isolation” is misused.]
Thus, the authors of four of the principal, early 2020 papers claiming discovery of a new coronavirus concede they had no proof that the origin of the virus genome was viral-like particles or cellular debris, pure or impure, or particles of any kind. In other words, the existence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA is based on faith, not fact.
We have also contacted Dr Charles Calisher, who is a seasoned virologist. In 2001, Science published an “impassioned plea… to the younger generation” from several veteran virologists, among them Calisher, saying that:
[Modern virus detection methods like] “sleek polymerase chain reaction… tell little or nothing about how a virus multiplies, which animals carry it, [or] how it makes people sick. [It is] like trying to say whether somebody has bad breath by looking at his fingerprint..” [3]
And that’s why we asked Dr Calisher whether he knows one single paper in which SARS-CoV-2 has been isolated and finally really purified. His answer:
“I know of no such a publication. I have kept an eye out for one.” [4]
This actually means that one cannot conclude that the RNA gene sequences, which the scientists took from the tissue samples prepared in the mentioned in vitro trials and for which the PCR tests are finally being “calibrated,” belong to a specific virus — in this case SARS-CoV-2.
In addition, there is no scientific proof that those RNA sequences are the causative agent of what is called COVID-19.
In order to establish a causal connection, one way or the other, i.e. beyond virus isolation and purification, it would have been absolutely necessary to carry out an experiment that satisfies the four Koch’s postulates. But there is no such experiment, as Amory Devereux and Rosemary Frei recently revealed for OffGuardian.
The necessity to fulfill these postulates regarding SARS-CoV-2 is demonstrated not least by the fact that attempts have been made to fulfill them. But even researchers claiming they have done it, in reality, did not succeed.
One example is a study published in Nature on May 7. This trial, besides other procedures which render the study invalid, did not meet any of the postulates.
For instance, the alleged “infected” laboratory mice did not show any relevant clinical symptoms clearly attributable to pneumonia, which according to the third postulate should actually occur if a dangerous and potentially deadly virus was really at work there. The slight bristles and weight loss, which were observed temporarily in the animals are negligible, not only because they could have been caused by the procedure itself, but also because the weight went back to normal again.
Also, no animal died except those they killed to perform the autopsies. And let’s not forget: These experiments should have been done before developing a test, which is not the case.
Revealingly, none of the leading German representatives of the official theory about SARS-Cov-2/COVID-19 — the Robert Koch-Institute (RKI), Alexander S. Kekulé (University of Halle), Hartmut Hengel and Ralf Bartenschlager (German Society for Virology), the aforementioned Thomas Löscher, Ulrich Dirnagl (Charité Berlin) or Georg Bornkamm (virologist and professor emeritus at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Munich) — could answer the following question:
If the particles that are claimed to be to be SARS-CoV-2 have not been purified, how do you want to be sure that the RNA gene sequences of these particles belong to a specific new virus?
Particularly, if there are studies showing that substances such as antibiotics that are added to the test tubes in the in vitro experiments carried out for virus detection can “stress” the cell culture in a way that new gene sequences are being formed that were not previously detectable — an aspect that Nobel laureate Barbara McClintock already drew attention to in her Nobel Lecture back in 1983.
It should not go unmentioned that we finally got the Charité – the employer of Christian Drosten, Germany’s most influential virologist in respect of COVID-19, advisor to the German government and co-developer of the PCR test, which was the first to be “accepted” (not validated!) by the WHO worldwide – to answer questions on the topic.
But we didn’t get answers until June 18, 2020, after months of non-response. In the end, we achieved it only with the help of Berlin lawyer Viviane Fischer.
Regarding our question: “Has the Charité convinced itself that appropriate particle purification was carried out?,” the Charité concedes that they didn’t use purified particles.
Although they claim “virologists at the Charité are sure that they are testing for the virus,” in their paper (Corman et al.) they state:
“RNA was extracted from clinical samples with the MagNA Pure 96 system (Roche, Penzberg, Germany) and from cell culture supernatants with the viral RNA mini kit (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany).”
That means they just assumed the RNA was viral.
Incidentally, the Corman et al. paper, published on January 23, 2020 didn’t even go through a proper peer review process, nor were the procedures outlined therein accompanied by controls — although it is only through these two things that scientific work becomes really solid.
Irrational test results
It is also certain that we cannot know the false positive rate of the PCR tests without widespread testing of people who certainly do not have the virus, proven by a method which is independent of the test (having a solid gold standard).
Therefore, it is hardly surprising that there are several papers illustrating irrational test results.
For example, already in February the health authority in China’s Guangdong province reported that people have fully recovered from illness blamed on COVID-19, started to test “negative,” and then tested “positive” again.
A month later, a paper published in the Journal of Medical Virology showed that 29 out of 610 patients at a hospital in Wuhan had 3 to 6 test results that flipped between “negative,” “positive” and “dubious.”
A third example is a study from Singapore in which tests were carried out almost daily on 18 patients. The majority went from “positive” to “negative” back to “positive” at least once, and up to five times in one patient.
Even Wang Chen, president of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, conceded in February that the PCR tests are “only 30 to 50 per cent accurate;” while Sin Hang Lee from the Milford Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory sent a letter to the WHO’s coronavirus response team and to Anthony Fauci on March 22, 2020, saying that:
“It has been widely reported that the RT-qPCR [Reverse Transcriptase quantitative PCR] test kits used to detect SARSCoV-2 RNA in human specimens are generating many false positive results and are not sensitive enough to detect some real positive cases.”
In other words, even if we theoretically assume that these PCR tests can really detect a viral infection, the tests would be practically worthless, and would only cause an unfounded scare among the “positive” people tested.
This becomes also evident considering the positive predictive value (PPV).
The PPV indicates the probability that a person with a positive test result is truly “positive” (ie. has the supposed virus), and it depends on two factors: the prevalence of the virus in the general population and the specificity of the test, that is the percentage of people without disease in whom the test is correctly “negative” (a test with a specificity of 95% incorrectly gives a positive result in 5 out of 100 non-infected people).
With the same specificity, the higher the prevalence, the higher the PPV.
In this context, on June 12 2020, the journal Deutsches Ärzteblatt published an article in which the PPV has been calculated with three different prevalence scenarios.
The results must, of course, be viewed very critically, first because it is not possible to calculate the specificity without a solid gold standard, as outlined, and second because the calculations in the article are based on the specificity determined in the study by Jessica Watson, which is potentially worthless, as also mentioned.
But if you abstract from it, assuming that the underlying specificity of 95% is correct and that we know the prevalence, even the mainstream medical journal Deutsches Ärzteblatt reports that the SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests may have “a shockingly low” PPV.
In one of the three scenarios, figuring with an assumed prevalence of 3%, the PPV was only 30 percent, which means that 70 percent of the people tested “positive” are not “positive” at all. Yet “they are prescribed quarantine,” as even the Ärzteblatt notes critically….
All this fits with the fact that the CDC and the FDA, for instance, concede in their files that the “SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests” are not suitable for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis.
In the “CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel” file from March 30, 2020, for example, it says:
“Detection of viral RNA may not indicate the presence of infectious virus or that 2019-nCoV is the causative agent for clinical symptoms.”
And:
“This test cannot rule out diseases caused by other bacterial or viral pathogens.”
And the FDA admits that: “positive results… do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease.”
Remarkably, in the instruction manuals of PCR tests we can also read that they are not intended as a diagnostic test, as for instance in those by Altona Diagnostics and Creative Diagnostics. [5]
To quote another one, in the product announcement of the LightMix Modular Assays produced by TIB Molbiol — which were developed using the Corman et al. protocol — and distributed by Roche, we read:
“These assays are not intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of coronavirus infection.”
And:
“For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.”
Where is the evidence that the tests can measure the “viral load”?
There is also reason to conclude that the PCR test from Roche and others cannot even detect the targeted genes.
Moreover, in the product descriptions of the RT-qPCR tests for SARS-COV-2 it says they are “qualitative” tests, contrary to the fact that the “q” in “qPCR” stands for “quantitative.”
If these tests are not “quantitative” tests, they don’t show how many viral particles are in the body.
That is crucial because, in order to even begin talking about actual illness in the real world not only in a laboratory, the patient would need to have millions and millions of viral particles actively replicating in their body.
That is to say, the CDC, WHO, FDA or the RKI may assert that the tests can measure the so-called “viral load,” i.e. how many viral particles are in the body. “But this has never been proven. That is an enormous scandal,” as the journalist Jon Rappoport points out.
This is not only because the term “viral load” is deception. If you put the question, “What is viral load?”, at a dinner party, people take it to mean viruses circulating in the bloodstream. They’re surprised to learn it’s actually RNA molecules.
Also, to prove beyond any doubt that the PCR can measure how much a person is “burdened” with a disease-causing virus, the following experiment would have had to be carried out, which has not happened yet:
You take, let’s say, a few hundred or even thousand people and remove tissue samples from them. Make sure the people who take the samples do not perform the test. The testers will never know who the patients are and what condition they’re in.
The testers run their PCR on the tissue samples. In each case, they say which virus they found and how much of it they found.
Then, for example, in patients 29, 86, 199, 272, and 293 they found a great deal of what they claim is a virus. Now we un-blind those patients. They should all be sick, because they have so much virus replicating in their bodies. But are they really sick — or are they fit as a fiddle?
With the help of the aforementioned lawyer Viviane Fischer, I finally got the Charité to answer the question of whether the test developed by Corman et al. — the so-called “Drosten PCR test” — is a quantitative test.
But the Charité was not willing to answer this question “yes.” Instead, the Charité wrote:
“If real-time RT-PCR is involved, to the knowledge of the Charité in most cases these are… limited to qualitative detection.”
Furthermore, the “Drosten PCR test” uses the unspecific E-gene assay as preliminary assay, while the Institut Pasteur uses the same assay as confirmatory assay.
According to Corman et al., the E-gene assay is likely to detect all Asian viruses, while the other assays in both tests are supposed to be more specific for sequences labelled “SARS-CoV-2.”
Besides the questionable purpose of having either a preliminary or a confirmatory test that is likely to detect all Asian viruses, at the beginning of April the WHO changed the algorithm, recommending that from then on a test can be regarded as “positive” even if just the E-gene assay (which is likely to detect all Asian viruses!) gives a “positive” result.
This means that a confirmed unspecific test result is officially sold as specific.
That change of algorithm increased the “case” numbers. Tests using the E-gene assay are produced for example by Roche, TIB Molbiol and R-Biopharm.
High CQ values make the test results even more meaningless
Another essential problem is that many PCR tests have a “cycle quantification” (Cq) value of over 35, and some, including the “Drosten PCR test,” even have a Cq of 45.
The Cq value specifies how many cycles of DNA replication are required to detect a real signal from biological samples.
“Cq values higher than 40 are suspect because of the implied low efficiency and generally should not be reported,” as it says in the MIQE guidelines.
MIQE stands for “Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments,” a set of guidelines that describe the minimum information necessary for evaluating publications on Real-Time PCR, also called quantitative PCR, or qPCR.
The inventor himself, Kary Mullis, agreed, when he stated:
“If you have to go more than 40 cycles to amplify a single-copy gene, there is something seriously wrong with your PCR.”
The MIQE guidelines have been developed under the aegis of Stephen A. Bustin, Professor of Molecular Medicine, a world-renowned expert on quantitative PCR and author of the book A-Z of Quantitative PCR, which has been called “the bible of qPCR.”
In a recent podcast interview Bustin points out that “the use of such arbitrary Cq cut-offs is not ideal, because they may be either too low (eliminating valid results) or too high (increasing false “positive” results).”
According to him, a Cq in the 20s to 30s should be aimed at, and there is concern regarding the reliability of the results for any Cq over 35.
If the Cq value gets too high, it becomes difficult to distinguish real signal from background, for example due to reactions of primers and fluorescent probes, and hence there is a higher probability of false positives.
Moreover, among other factors that can alter the result, before starting with the actual PCR, in case you are looking for presumed RNA viruses such as SARS-CoV-2, the RNA must be converted to complementary DNA (cDNA) with the enzyme Reverse Transcriptase — hence the “RT” at the beginning of “PCR” or “qPCR.”
But this transformation process is “widely recognized as inefficient and variable,” as Jessica Schwaber from the Centre for Commercialization of Regenerative Medicine in Toronto and two research colleagues pointed out in a 2019 paper.
Stephen A. Bustin acknowledges problems with PCR in a comparable way.
For example, he pointed to the problem that in the course of the conversion process (RNA to cDNA) the amount of DNA obtained with the same RNA base material can vary widely, even by a factor of 10 (see above interview).
Considering that the DNA sequences get doubled at every cycle, even a slight variation becomes magnified and can thus alter the result, annihilating the test’s reliable informative value.
So how can it be that those who claim the PCR tests are highly meaningful for so-called COVID-19 diagnosis blind out the fundamental inadequacies of these tests — even if they are confronted with questions regarding their validity?
Certainly, the apologists of the novel coronavirus hypothesis should have dealt with these questions before throwing the tests on the market and putting basically the whole world under lockdown, not least because these are questions that come to mind immediately for anyone with even a spark of scientific understanding.
Thus, the thought inevitably emerges that financial and political interests play a decisive role for this ignorance about scientific obligations. NB, the WHO, for example has financial ties with drug companies, as the British Medical Journal showed in 2010.
Experts criticize “that the notorious corruption and conflicts of interest at WHO have continued, even grown” since then. The CDC as well, to take another big player, is obviously no better off.
Finally, the reasons and possible motives remain speculative, and many involved surely act in good faith; but the science is clear: The numbers generated by these RT-PCR tests do not in the least justify frightening people who have been tested “positive” and imposing lockdown measures that plunge countless people into poverty and despair or even drive them to suicide.
A “positive” result may have serious consequences for the patients as well, because then all non-viral factors are excluded from the diagnosis and the patients are treated with highly toxic drugs and invasive intubations.
Especially for elderly people and patients with pre-existing conditions such a treatment can be fatal, as we have outlined in the article “Fatal Therapie.”
Without doubt excess mortality rates are caused by the therapy and by the lockdown measures, while the “COVID-19” death statistics comprise also patients who died of a variety of diseases, redefined as COVID-19 only because of a “positive” test result whose value could not be more doubtful.

principiascientificinternational--2020-08-06--COVID-19: Vaccine ‘Not Possible’ for a Virus Not Yet Identified

COVID-19 : Vaccine ‘ Not Possible ’ for a Virus Not Yet Identified Regulatory authorities , such as the CDC/FDA all insist that their handling of the current Coronavirus pandemic ( SARS-CoV2/COVID-19 ) is based on science and associated data or facts .
This is especially the case in the United States .
We are told that an identified virus causes the infection which in turn causes , or may cause , deaths – potentially in the millions .
Furthermore , authorities also claim that the viral disease ( COVID-19 ) can only be treated with a vaccine – which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ must be developed urgently and then made available to the public worldwide .
Let us evaluate these claims on a proper scientific basis .
First of all , let us see if the virus has been proven to exist in humans .
Then more importantly , determine to what extent , if any , it can be measured as the disease which causes all these alleged deaths .
The presence or absence of COVID-19 in humans has not been determined effectively and efficiently because of the known current technical ( scientific ) limitations @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cases ( in fact , in almost all cases ) the presence/absence of the virus is established by indirect testing .
These indirect tests are commonly known as PCR and antibody tests .
Without going into technical details , one may consider that these tests monitor specific types of proteins or related chemicals which are produced by the presence of viruses , not only by SARS-CoV2 or COVID-19 , but by all pathogenic viruses as a defence mechanism to get rid of the viruses and/or to protect our bodies from their ill effects @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that when someone refers to testing for a virus , one does not determine the actual virus itself but a marker ( such as a protein ) .
The irony is that these markers are not specific to COVID-19 , but are generic to all viruses to which we are exposed .
Saying it differently , these tests are never sufficiently specific – and scientifically speaking should not be relied upon for declaring the presence of a specific virus – including COVID-19 .
Obviously , if a virus can not be monitored reliably @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or deaths can not be established reliably and accurately – at least scientifically .
Hence , we see confusion and the inaccuracies over the predicted death rate which turns out to be no higher than a normal to severe influenza and concurrent attrition rate .
In a simpler and daily life example , one may explain the situation as akin to establishing car safety by monitoring the air pressure levels of the tires ( the marker ) because someone decided that deviation in car tire pressure is to be the determinant of safety @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chance ) that a deviation in tire pressure could compromise vehicle performance/safety .
However , it is neither accurate or logical using tire pressure alone as your safety criteria and to then label “ unsafe ” any and all cars with one or more tires with somewhat irregular pressure .
One or more tires alone may be the problem – not the car .
Unfortunately , in the extreme , the authorities end up deciding that all car safety will be monitored only on the basis of tire pressure level .
Now this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” or the law for car safety assessment .
On top of this comes the irony that these authorities provide their own version of tire pressure gauges to test all our tires , which happens to show tire failure routinely in otherwise perfectly acceptable cars .
This is exactly the situation we have with the pandemic and COVID-19 monitoring i.e .
a regulatory compliance requirement that COVID-19 infection will be established based on PCR/antibody tests ( let ’ s call that the “ Official Test ” ) which , as noted above , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Worst yet , the authorities are specifying the use of a testing protocol instituted and “ approved/authorized ” by them alone .
It is important to understand that the “ Official Test ” is solely on a regulatory compliance requirement basis .
It is NOT a scientific validation of having COVID-19 .
Yet it is promoted as scientific .
While it may be true that believers and promoters of this requirement of testing are experts from the areas of pharmacy , epidemiology , virology , genetics , microbiology , immunology , medicines @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
They are not experts in testing .
Where the real capability lies in determining a valid test falls in the category of analytical chemistry .
The multiple aforementioned disciplines named are the users of the tests .
They should not claim to being the developers and/or validators of the test – they lack the required expertise .
I say this on as such an expert in this field of testing .
To better illustrate the subtlety of this point let us consider the analogy of a baker who uses agricultural products ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( e.g .
oven ) to make bread but then believes he is somehow also qualified and holds authority over the developing and manufacturing of the items used to make the bread .
If one sees the issue from an analytical chemistry perspective , it should become immediately obvious that such inexpert testing is scientifically invalid and so , too , are all the associated claims based upon it .
The reason that current COVID-19 testing should be considered bogus is that these tests do not meet the basic and fundamental requirements of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the procedure of validation of the tests .
This validation step is commonly based on establishing four parameters : ( 1 ) accuracy ; ( 2 ) precision ; ( 3 ) specificity ; ( 4 ) references used to validate the test .
No analytical test is accepted without meeting these validation requirements – the most essential scientific requirements .
However , at present no COVID-19 test is used ( or is even available ) which has such validation .
As such , the current practice is ordinarily considered as a cardinal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ test scientists often argue that seeking a specific test for COVID-19 ( or its associated disease ) is like seeking “ absolute truth ” which would hinder the current and ( to them ) “ acceptable ” testing/science .
This unfortunately is the most deceptive , even fraudulent position possible and yet it is often supported ( and promoted ) by the regulatory authorities .
Therefore , at present , regulatory authorities are not implementing the true scientific principles applicable to this pharmaceutical issue .
Instead , their methodology is self-created and an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” with various flashy and catchy marketing phrases .
Now , if the COVID-19 virus can not be determined ( isolated ) , and by extension the real nature of the pandemic , for what purpose is a vaccine being developed ?
Again , this is all just a regulatory requirement because regulatory authorities are asking for it , and as such , it needs to be developed .
On the other hand , it is impossible to develop a true vaccine for COVID-19 because – if we are incapable of actually monitoring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the effectiveness of a vaccine be established ?
In short , it can not !
Therefore , most likely a fake vaccine will be developed to satisfy the regulators ’ wishes ( as well as to calm down the created public hysteria and fear ) .
Unfortunately , such vaccines , if developed and administered , will certainly create potentially dangerous side effects , without any presumed benefits , by interfering with the body ’ s own immune system , as well as other related physiological processes .
The ill-thought out regulatory compliance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with COVID-19 , it is pervasive in other pharmaceutical areas as well .
For example , it reigns for the approval process of traditional pharmaceutical products such as a tablet or capsule – and it has been standard procedure for at least three decades , which certainly has ruined the science , as well as pharmaceutical product development and manufacturing .
All kinds of enforceable regulatory requirements have been spawned and implemented in the name of quality control of the manufactured products .
The irony here is that authorities have never defined what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” with some ( scientifically ) measurable parameter/criteria .
However , there now exists a huge battery of compliance requirements ( such as regulatory guidance documents ) available from authorities , in particular the FDA .
The requirements and guidance , are enforced with or without numerous unrelated testing requirements .
They have never been validated to see if they meet their intended purpose or claim .
But industry must comply if it wants to survive and the public goes on assuming it is receiving “ quality ” pharmaceutical products .
In summary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and fatal flaw in the practice of regulating pharmaceutical products , development and assessment .
This can only be addressed by critically evaluating and implementing appropriate scientific principles from relevant scientific disciplines and expertise .

COVID-19: Vaccine ‘Not Possible’ for a Virus Not Yet Quantifiable
Written by Saeed A Qureshi PhD (edited by John O'Sullivan)
Regulatory authorities, such as the CDC/FDA all insist that their handling of the current Coronavirus pandemic (SARS-CoV2/COVID-19) is based on science and associated data or facts. This is especially the case in the United States.
We are told that an identified virus causes the infection which in turn causes, or may cause, deaths – potentially in the millions.
Furthermore, authorities also claim that the viral disease (COVID-19) can only be treated with a vaccine – which at present does not exist – and must be developed urgently and then made available to the public worldwide.
Let us evaluate these claims on a proper scientific basis. First of all, let us see if the virus has been proven to exist in humans. Then more importantly, determine to what extent, if any, it can be measured as the disease which causes all these alleged deaths.
The presence or absence of COVID-19 in humans has not been determined effectively and efficiently because of the known current technical (scientific) limitations, as explained below.
In most cases (in fact, in almost all cases) the presence/absence of the virus is established by indirect testing. These indirect tests are commonly known as PCR and antibody tests. Without going into technical details, one may consider that these tests monitor specific types of proteins or related chemicals which are produced by the presence of viruses, not only by SARS-CoV2 or COVID-19, but by all pathogenic viruses as a defence mechanism to get rid of the viruses and/or to protect our bodies from their ill effects.
It is important to note here that when someone refers to testing for a virus, one does not determine the actual virus itself but a marker (such as a protein).
The irony is that these markers are not specific to COVID-19, but are generic to all viruses to which we are exposed.
Saying it differently, these tests are never sufficiently specific – and scientifically speaking should not be relied upon for declaring the presence of a specific virus – including COVID-19. Obviously, if a virus cannot be monitored reliably, then by implication the associated disease or deaths cannot be established reliably and accurately – at least scientifically.
Hence, we see confusion and the inaccuracies over the predicted death rate which turns out to be no higher than a normal to severe influenza and concurrent attrition rate. In a simpler and daily life example, one may explain the situation as akin to establishing car safety by monitoring the air pressure levels of the tires (the marker) because someone decided that deviation in car tire pressure is to be the determinant of safety.
It is quite possible (by chance) that a deviation in tire pressure could compromise vehicle performance/safety. However, it is neither accurate or logical using tire pressure alone as your safety criteria and to then label “unsafe” any and all cars with one or more tires with somewhat irregular pressure. One or more tires alone may be the problem – not the car.
Unfortunately, in the extreme, the authorities end up deciding that all car safety will be monitored only on the basis of tire pressure level. Now this would become a “Regulatory Compliance Requirement” or the law for car safety assessment.
On top of this comes the irony that these authorities provide their own version of tire pressure gauges to test all our tires, which happens to show tire failure routinely in otherwise perfectly acceptable cars.
This is exactly the situation we have with the pandemic and COVID-19 monitoring i.e. a regulatory compliance requirement that COVID-19 infection will be established based on PCR/antibody tests (let’s call that the “Official Test”) which, as noted above, is not specific at all to COVID-19. Worst yet, the authorities are specifying the use of a testing protocol instituted and “approved/authorized” by them alone.
It is important to understand that the “Official Test” is solely on a regulatory compliance requirement basis. It is NOT a scientific validation of having COVID-19. Yet it is promoted as scientific.
While it may be true that believers and promoters of this requirement of testing are experts from the areas of pharmacy, epidemiology, virology, genetics, microbiology, immunology, medicines, and biochemistry to name a few. They are not experts in testing.
Where the real capability lies in determining a valid test falls in the category of analytical chemistry. The multiple aforementioned disciplines named are the users of the tests. They should not claim to being the developers and/or validators of the test – they lack the required expertise. I say this as an expert in this field of testing.
To better illustrate the subtlety of this point let us consider the analogy of a baker who uses agricultural products (e.g. flour) and cooking equipment (e.g. oven) to make bread but then believes he is somehow also qualified and holds authority over the developing and manufacturing of the items used to make the bread. If one sees the issue from an analytical chemistry perspective, it should become immediately obvious that such inexpert testing is scientifically invalid and so, too, are all the associated claims based upon it.
The reason that current COVID-19 testing should be considered bogus is that these tests do not meet the basic and fundamental requirements of science (analytical chemistry) which is the procedure of validation of the tests.
This validation step is commonly based on establishing four parameters: (1) accuracy; (2) precision; (3) specificity; (4) references used to validate the test.
No analytical test is accepted without meeting these validation requirements – the most essential scientific requirements.
However, at present no COVID-19 test is used (or is even available) which has such validation. As such, the current practice is ordinarily considered as a cardinal sin in the scientific community.
Pro-PCR/antibody test scientists often argue that seeking a specific test for COVID-19 (or its associated disease) is like seeking “absolute truth” which would hinder the current and (to them) “acceptable” testing/science. This unfortunately is the most deceptive, even fraudulent position possible and yet it is often supported (and promoted) by the regulatory authorities.
Therefore, at present, regulatory authorities are not implementing the true scientific principles applicable to this pharmaceutical issue. Instead, their methodology is self-created and an arbitrary science of “regulatory compliance requirements” with various flashy and catchy marketing phrases.
Now, if the COVID-19 virus cannot be determined (isolated), and by extension the real nature of the pandemic, for what purpose is a vaccine being developed?
Again, this is all just a regulatory requirement because regulatory authorities are asking for it, and as such, it needs to be developed. On the other hand, it is impossible to develop a true vaccine for COVID-19 because – if we are incapable of actually monitoring the virus or disease – how can the effectiveness of a vaccine be established?
In short, it cannot!
Therefore, most likely a fake vaccine will be developed to satisfy the regulators’ wishes (as well as to calm down the created public hysteria and fear). Unfortunately, such vaccines, if developed and administered, will certainly create potentially dangerous side effects, without any presumed benefits, by interfering with the body’s own immune system, as well as other related physiological processes.
The ill-thought out regulatory compliance requirement is not new or just associated with COVID-19, it is pervasive in other pharmaceutical areas as well. For example, it reigns for the approval process of traditional pharmaceutical products such as a tablet or capsule – and it has been standard procedure for at least three decades, which certainly has ruined the science, as well as pharmaceutical product development and manufacturing.
All kinds of enforceable regulatory requirements have been spawned and implemented in the name of quality control of the manufactured products. The irony here is that authorities have never defined what they mean by a “quality product” with some (scientifically) measurable parameter/criteria.
However, there now exists a huge battery of compliance requirements (such as regulatory guidance documents) available from authorities, in particular the FDA. The requirements and guidance, are enforced with or without numerous unrelated testing requirements. They have never been validated to see if they meet their intended purpose or claim. But industry must comply if it wants to survive and the public goes on assuming it is receiving “quality” pharmaceutical products.
In summary, at present there is a serious and fatal flaw in the practice of regulating pharmaceutical products, development and assessment. This can only be addressed by critically evaluating and implementing appropriate scientific principles from relevant scientific disciplines and expertise.

Canadian Government Admits Inflating COVID numbers by 50 percent
Written by John O'Sullivan
A few days ago the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield admitted COVID-19 deaths were probably over-counted. Now a similar admission comes from Canada. How much is the virus death toll being exaggerated and who is to blame?
Beyond all doubt, there is indeed a “perverse incentive” for hospitals to overcount their coronavirus deaths by falsely attributing unrelated deaths to the virus. Officials do this because of the CARES Act passed by Congress in March, whereby hospitals receive a 20 percent premium when seeking payment for Medicare patients who died allegedly of the coronavirus.
Now we learn that an official report can be found on the Public Health Ontario website that the kind of same scam is happening north of the border:
Using the excuse that it needed to exaggerate the numbers to account for a guesstimate of potentially uncounted unreported deaths, Public Health Ontario Canada simply added an ‘inflation factor’ of 50 percent. Pure guesswork, pure fraud.
Moreover, the report admits ZERO actual deaths of children (emphasized in yellow above) from the disease had been reported so they decided to make them up. This is despite the growing widespread national and international evidence that children are almost entirely unaffected while 95 percent of deaths occur in those over 70 with existing comorbidities.
All reported deaths were inflated to assess the impact of an assumed potential under-detection of COVID19 deaths. An inflation factor of 50 percent was chosen since, on average, several European countries reported under-detections of 50 percent in an analysis conducted by the New York Times.
On pages 9 & 10 you can see the REAL vs ESTIMATES in the tables of numbers which include the faked inflation numbers.
