Whether it’s a scientist, a gaggle of scientists, a government official, a person waving a study around like a newspaper with a hot headline from an old movie, my response is the same, and I make it knowing that some people will intentionally refuse to understand it:
ONE: SAYING the virus has been isolated is not the same thing as proving it’s been isolated.
TWO: Researchers routinely twist the meaning of the word “isolated” to mean its very opposite.
Isolation is absurdly taken to mean: “We have the virus in a soup in a dish in the lab. It is not separated out (isolated) from the soup.

How can you sequence something you don’t have? You can’t.

An art restorer, conservationist, and historian is called to the home of a well-known mob enforcer.
The enforcer tells him he has something to show him in the attic. On the way, they pass through the living room, where several open suitcases are sitting on the floor. They’re spilling over with stacks of cash. Automatic weapons and boxes of ammo are laid out on a long table. In an open closet, the art expert sees a row of jackets with designations indicating: FBI, BATF, Federal Marshal, sheriff, local police.

The third group is lead white chips, used for a hundred years on either side of the rough date when Rembrandt could have painted the lost self-portrait.
The art expert finds that Rembrandt (and hundreds of other painters) used this general type of lead white.
The expert constructs, from other scholars’ work, an essay claiming there was and is a lost Rembrandt self-portrait. He excludes commentary that denies the existence of this painting.
He “sequences” all this information and conjecture and guesswork (and con) into a convincing report, which points to the small pile of chips in the mob enforcer’s attic.
(It turns out the enforcer intends to accuse a rival mob boss of stealing the “lost Rembrandt self-portrait.”)
The existence of the self-portrait is thus “established,” which is to say, it is put together, cobbled from various sources, concocted, smoothed out by ignoring counter-information—employing a vast generality about lead white paint.
Of course, in all this ridiculous invention, the self-portrait itself is not there, it is not in hand, its existence has not been demonstrated, it is a story, THERE IS NO ISOLATION OF IT from surrounding assumption and gimcrackery.
So it is with SARS-CoV-2.

I’ve explained all this several times, in detail, in past articles, and of course people here and there continue to send me studies claiming isolation.
I can do this forever.
People can say, “Well, we know from photos of Martian soil samples that on the second Tuesday in March, 1843, there was a picnic on Mars attended by three virologists from the Martian Institute of Epidemiology, and they ate baloney sandwiches on rye toast and drank Miller Lite.”
I enjoy these fictional tales in a vacuum. I would leave them alone, except that the failure to prove the existence of SARS-Cov-2 is at the bottom of all the lies that have been used to steal the freedom and assets and livelihoods from at least a billion people.
I won’t leave that alone.
Neither should you.

lewrockwell--2020-12-19--Time To Heel – Or Fight

Time To Heel – Or Fight

In Part 1 of this article I discussed how our country has devolved from Huxley ’ s Brave New World of distraction and irrelevancy into Orwell ’ s world of Big Brother surveillance and Solzhenitsyn ’ s Gulag Archipelago .
Now I will make the case for joining the fight against the Great Reset .
As more than half the country sleep-walks into the clutches of Marxism and tyranny , they fail to heed the wisdom of those who experienced the cruelty , oppression , and degradation after a similar revolution in the last century .
“ A revolution never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ benefits only a few shameless opportunists , while to the country as a whole it heralds countless deaths , widespread impoverishment , and , in the gravest cases , a long-lasting degeneration of the people.

Local restaurants , hair salons , delis , hardware stores , and thousands of other small businesses will be involuntarily shuttered for good .
The national chains will collect their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pat themselves on the back , and abscond with the profits of the now deceased small businesses .
The corporate fascists will become ever more powerful .
Why are we letting this happen ?

Somewhere between one-third and one-half of all small businesses in America have closed or will close permanently .
The bullshit slogan “ We are all in this together ” has been beaten to death by the propaganda media , while our wealthy elite overlords work remotely in their multi-million-dollar mansions , doing their daily Peleton workouts , sending their kids to expensive private schools and dining on white truffles and caviar at the French Laundry for $ 1,200 .
We are not in this together .
It ’ s us and THEM @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The millions of formerly middle class and poor are lining up at foodbanks because authoritarian governors like Newsom , Cuomo , Whitmer , Murphy , and Wolf have shutdown small businesses without any science to back up their dictatorial actions , while allowing Wal-Mart , Costco , Lowes , and other favored companies to remain open .
Political donations appreciated .
As the months of idiotic government tyranny have gotten worse , I couldn ’ t help but experience an Inspector Finch moment while pondering the confluence of events surrounding this pandemic/plandemic/scamdemic .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ everything that happened , and everything that is going to happen .
It was like a perfect pattern , laid out in front of me .

We also know the drug companies have legal immunity from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Whenever confronted with a confusing sequence of events and baffling governmental measures , it is always a safe bet to just follow the money .
Leftist ideology is only a means for evildoers to justify the destruction of our society .
“ Ideology—that is what gives evildoing its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer the necessary steadfastness and determination.
” – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn If you drive 50 % of small businesses into insolvency , all those sales and profits must gravitate to the connected mega-corporations , as we have already seen .
They @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mandates to keep the profits flowing and small businesses from competing .
By stealing the presidential election and accomplishing the same result in the Georgia Senate races , the Marxist loving global elite will change the world .
By packing the Supreme Court with four leftists , abolishing the filibuster rule and making Washington DC and Puerto Rico states , the coup will be complete .
America as we know it will cease to exist and those not connected to the oligarchs will sink into impoverishment and slave-hood status .
The oligarchs will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ control through an iron fist and sophisticated technological surveillance .
The “ miraculous ” Gates/Fauci Covid vaccine , which is currently being marketed by the MSM talking heads , will become mandatory to work , travel , shop , or enter sports venues .

By acquiescing to the demands of these evil totalitarians we are sentencing future generations to a digital gulag – with the threat of a real gulag for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ evil , in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface , we are implanting it , and it will rise up a thousand-fold in the future .

In Part 1 of this article I discussed how our country has devolved from Huxley’s Brave New World of distraction and irrelevancy into Orwell’s world of Big Brother surveillance and Solzhenitsyn’s Gulag Archipelago. Now I will make the case for joining the fight against the Great Reset.
As more than half the country sleep-walks into the clutches of Marxism and tyranny, they fail to heed the wisdom of those who experienced the cruelty, oppression, and degradation after a similar revolution in the last century.
“A revolution never brings prosperity to a nation, but benefits only a few shameless opportunists, while to the country as a whole it heralds countless deaths, widespread impoverishment, and, in the gravest cases, a long-lasting degeneration of the people.” – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Schumer’s slip of the tongue about changing the world and then putting on his mask (to push the masks work narrative) and declaring he will change the country when they win the two Georgia Senate seats reveals the global nature of this ongoing coup attempt by the global elites and the Deep State. I was highly suspicious of the engineered hysteria for this China flu back in March when I wrote P for Pandemic and stand by my conclusions reached nine months ago: Verdusa Women’s ... Buy New $32.99 (as of 08:21 UTC - Details)
“As this incomprehensible national shutdown extends into April, tens of thousands of small businesses will be forced to close their doors for good. Local restaurants, hair salons, delis, hardware stores, and thousands of other small businesses will be involuntarily shuttered for good.
The national chains will collect their government largess, produce PR campaigns to pat themselves on the back, and abscond with the profits of the now deceased small businesses. The corporate fascists will become ever more powerful. Why are we letting this happen?”
I’m infuriated every time I see an Applebees, Wal-Mart, or Amazon commercial touting their bravery and fortitude during these troubled times. These mega-corporations, with powerful lobbying departments and unlimited financial resources, have reaped tremendous profits and seen their stock prices soar to all-time highs, while hundreds of thousands of small restaurants and retailers have closed for good. Somewhere between one-third and one-half of all small businesses in America have closed or will close permanently.
The bullshit slogan “We are all in this together” has been beaten to death by the propaganda media, while our wealthy elite overlords work remotely in their multi-million-dollar mansions, doing their daily Peleton workouts, sending their kids to expensive private schools and dining on white truffles and caviar at the French Laundry for $1,200. We are not in this together.
It’s us and THEM. You know who THEY are. The millions of formerly middle class and poor are lining up at foodbanks because authoritarian governors like Newsom, Cuomo, Whitmer, Murphy, and Wolf have shutdown small businesses without any science to back up their dictatorial actions, while allowing Wal-Mart, Costco, Lowes, and other favored companies to remain open. Political donations appreciated.
As the months of idiotic government tyranny have gotten worse, I couldn’t help but experience an Inspector Finch moment while pondering the confluence of events surrounding this pandemic/plandemic/scamdemic.
“I felt like I could see everything that happened, and everything that is going to happen. It was like a perfect pattern, laid out in front of me. And I realized we’re all part of it, and all trapped by it.” – Finch – V for Vendetta
DREAM PAIRS Women&rsqu... Buy New $34.99 (as of 08:21 UTC - Details) The purposeful destruction of the US and EU economies through unnecessary, unwarranted and un-Constitutional lockdowns of citizens and small businesses; mandatory masking for a virus that can easily penetrate a mask, with a survival rate of 99.5% for those under 70 years old; using the virus to steal a presidential election though mail-in ballot fraud, social media manipulation, and Dominion software vote switching; and now the rollout of a vaccine in nine months that is supposedly 95% effective, when the regular flu vaccine is only 40% effective after decades of study, and no one has a clue regarding any long-term consequences of the vaccine, is all part of the plan.
We also know the drug companies have legal immunity from whatever terrible side effects might arise. Whenever confronted with a confusing sequence of events and baffling governmental measures, it is always a safe bet to just follow the money. Leftist ideology is only a means for evildoers to justify the destruction of our society.
“Ideology—that is what gives evildoing its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer the necessary steadfastness and determination.” – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
If you drive 50% of small businesses into insolvency, all those sales and profits must gravitate to the connected mega-corporations, as we have already seen. They then payoff politicians to enforce regulations and mandates to keep the profits flowing and small businesses from competing. By stealing the presidential election and accomplishing the same result in the Georgia Senate races, the Marxist loving global elite will change the world.
By packing the Supreme Court with four leftists, abolishing the filibuster rule and making Washington DC and Puerto Rico states, the coup will be complete. America as we know it will cease to exist and those not connected to the oligarchs will sink into impoverishment and slave-hood status. The oligarchs will reap the riches, while they retain control through an iron fist and sophisticated technological surveillance.
The “miraculous” Gates/Fauci Covid vaccine, which is currently being marketed by the MSM talking heads, will become mandatory to work, travel, shop, or enter sports venues. Big Pharma is already reaping billions in profits, while being shielded from liability when it goes wrong – as designed. By acquiescing to the demands of these evil totalitarians we are sentencing future generations to a digital gulag – with the threat of a real gulag for dissenters.
“In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand-fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.” – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“Big Brother is home. He is installed in the item you just dragged home from the Apple store.” ― Julian Assange
Even though all “scientific” studies, prior to the pandemic, by the CDC, WHO, prestigious universities, the New England Journal of Medicine, and the recently published Danish mask study all concluded masks do not protect anyone from viruses, our totalitarian overlords saw the opportunity to impose their will upon the masses as a test to see how far they could go before meeting resistance.
Fauci, the Surgeon General, and the head of the CDC weren’t lying in March when they all told the public, masks didn’t protect them. They have been lying since then. The scientific proof can be easily observed by looking at a chart of cases in states with mandatory masking. The cases have skyrocketed (due to the purposely faulty PCR test) despite mask mandates and lockdowns. I guess the manufacturers of these masks are telling the truth. Dress the Population W...

“Even the crowning case filed by Texas, joined by 17 other Republican-run state justice departments, and supported by 106 Republican US House members, was dismissed by the Supreme Court, a court that now has three Trump-appointed judges and a clear conservative majority. In other words, the legal angle was tried and it failed”, he opines.
Nevertheless, the professor does not rule out that President Trump won’t admit defeat publicly and will “use the narrative that the election was stolen from him to help fuel another run for president in 2024”.

Maltz lashes out at many of the key Republicans for running and hiding “in their bunkers” to avoid political controversy: “They placed their personal goals ahead of America and failed the people”, he believes.
At the same time, the security executive hails Trump’s “passion and enthusiasm for America”, stressing that President Trump needs to continue to challenge the outcome of the 2020 presidential race given “the massive fraud and corruption exposed during the election”.

Covid-19 Testing Scandal Deepens

Positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR ) tests have been used as the justification for keeping large portions of the world locked down for the past nine months .
Not reliable hospitalization or death rates ; just positive PCR test numbers — a large portion of which are from people who have no symptoms of actual illness — are the triggers behind the shutdowns .

Medically speaking , a “ case ” refers to a sick person .
It never ever referred to someone who had no symptoms of illness .
Now all of a sudden , this well-established medical term , “ case , ” has been arbitrarily redefined to mean someone who tested positive for the presence of noninfectious viral @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ That is not epidemiology .

While any CT @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend running PCR tests at a CT of 40.5 Drosten tests and tests recommended by the World Health Organization are set to a CT of 45 .

By the time you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rate is a mere 20 % , meaning 80 % are false positives .

They also looked at the timing of the test , and how symptom severity relates to PCR test results .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ other words , if you have symptoms of COVID-19 , by Day 8 from the onset of symptoms , the chances of you spreading it to others starts to decline , and in the days following , you are unlikely to be infectious even if you still test positive .
This is particularly true if the PCR test is using a higher than ideal CT. As noted by the authors:9 Live Virus Unlikely in Tests Using CT Above 24 According to The New York Times,10 researchers have been “ unable to grow the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PCR tests had CT values above 27 , ” and if the virus can not replicate , you will not get ill and are not infectious , so you can not spread it to others .
The Clinical Infectious Diseases review11 confirms this .
Under the heading “ The Relationship Between RT-PCR Results and Viral Culture of SARS-CoV-2 , ” 12 they point out that “ significantly lower ” CTs were used in studies that correctly identified infectious patients .
Five of the studies included were unable to identify any live viruses in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ used a CT above 24 .
What ’ s more , in order to produce live virus culture , a patient whose PCR test used a CT at or above 35 had to be symptomatic .
So , to clarify , if you have symptoms of COVID-19 and test positive using a PCR test that was run at 35 amplification cycles or higher , then you are likely to be infected and infectious .
However , if you do not have symptoms , yet test positive using a PCR test run at 35 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely a false positive and you pose no risk to others as you ’ re unlikely to carry any live virus .
In fact , provided you ’ re asymptomatic , you ’ re unlikely to be infectious even if you test positive with a test run at 24 CTs or higher .
The Clinical Infectious Diseases review also confirmed that the timing of the test matters .
According to the authors:13 uguest Women Long Slee ... Buy New $ 24.99 Another scientific review14,15 that looked into how the timing of the test @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infectious was posted on the preprint server medRxiv September 29 , 2020 .
Fourteen studies were included in this review .
The data show that your chances of getting a true positive on the first day of COVID-19 symptom onset is only about 40 % .
Not until Day 3 from symptom onset do you have an 80 % chance of getting an accurate PCR result .
By Day 5 the accuracy shrinks considerably and by Day 8 the accuracy is nil .
Now , these are symptomatic people .
When you ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positive PCR test being accurate is virtually nonexistent .
The graph below , from one of the studies16 included in the review ( Bullard et .

, illustrates the probability of a patient being infectious ( having live virus ) based on the CT used and the timing of the test .
As explained by the review authors:17 Even though health authorities know that high CTs result in high rates of false positives , they do not specify the CT used for the PCR tests they ’ re reporting .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ change in Florida , which just became the first state to require all labs in the state to report the CT used for their PCR tests.18 The Florida Health Department issued the order December 3 , 2020 , and labs must comply with the new mandatory reporting rule within seven days.19 This could prove quite interesting , especially if the state health department decides to invalidate positive results obtained from tests run above a certain amplification threshold .
Time will tell exactly how this reporting requirement might influence pandemic response measures such as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ news , an appeals court in Portugal recently ruled20,21 that the PCR test is “ not a reliable test for SARS-CoV-2 ” and that “ a single positive PCR test can not be used as an effective diagnosis of infection.
” Therefore , “ any enforced quarantine based on the results is unlawful.
” 22 The court also noted that forcing healthy people to self-isolate could be a violation of their fundamental right to liberty .
The case was brought by four German tourists who had been forced to self-quarantine after one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were brought forth as evidence in this case , including a September 28 , 2020 , study23 in Clinical Infectious Diseases , which found that when you run a PCR test at a CT of 35 or higher , the accuracy drops to 3 % , resulting in a 97 % false positive rate .
The court ruled that , based on the science presented , any PCR test using a CT over 25 is unreliable .
Fatal Errors Found in Paper on Which PCR Testing Is Based The Portuguese appeals court is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ PCR test being used as the sole criteria for quarantine .
November 30 , 2020 , the scientific paper24 describing the work flow of how to use the PCR test to diagnose SARS-CoV-2 infection — which was quickly accepted as the standard by the WHO and applied across the world — was challenged25 by 22 international scientists who demand that the paper be retracted due to “ fatal errors.
” 26 The paper in question was written by Christian Drosten , Ph.D. , a German virologist , and Victor Corman , who heads @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and clinical virology .
According to Reiner Fuellmich,27 founding member of the German Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee ( Außerparlamentarischer Corona Untersuchungsausschuss,28 or ACU ) ,29,30 Drosten is a key culprit in the COVID-19 pandemic hoax .
One of the key “ fatal errors ” in the Corman-Drosten paper is that they wrote it — and developed the PCR test — before there was any viral isolate available .
All they used was the genetic sequence published online by Chinese scientists in January 2020 .

Positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests have been used as the justification for keeping large portions of the world locked down for the past nine months. Not reliable hospitalization or death rates; just positive PCR test numbers — a large portion of which are from people who have no symptoms of actual illness — are the triggers behind the shutdowns.
Experts are now coming forward in growing numbers denouncing mass PCR testing as foolhardy and nonsensical if not outright criminal. Why? Because we’re now finding that PCR tests rarely tell us anything truly useful, at least not when they’re used as they have been so far.
Why PCR Tests Are the Wrong Tool to Assess Pandemic Threat
We now know that PCR tests: Unbranded Women’... Buy New $20.99 (as of 08:23 UTC - Details)
1.Cannot distinguish between “live” viruses and inactive (noninfectious) viral particles and therefore cannot be used as a diagnostic tool — For this reason, it is grossly misleading to refer to a positive test as a “COVID-19 case.”
As explained by Dr. Lee Merritt in her August 2020 Doctors for Disaster Preparedness1 lecture, featured in “How Medical Technocracy Made the Plandemic Possible,” media and public health officials appear to have purposefully conflated “cases” or positive tests with the actual illness.
Medically speaking, a “case” refers to a sick person. It never ever referred to someone who had no symptoms of illness. Now all of a sudden, this well-established medical term, “case,” has been arbitrarily redefined to mean someone who tested positive for the presence of noninfectious viral RNA. As noted by Merritt, “That is not epidemiology. That’s fraud.”
2.Cannot confirm that 2019-nCoV is the causative agent for clinical symptoms as the test cannot rule out diseases caused by other bacterial or viral pathogens.
3.Have not been established for monitoring the treatment of 2019-nCoV infection.
4.Have exceptionally high false result rates — The higher the cycle threshold (CT) — i.e., the number of amplification cycles used to detect RNA particles — the greater the chance of a false positive.
While any CT over 35 is deemed scientifically unjustifiable,2,3,4 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend running PCR tests at a CT of 40.5
Drosten tests and tests recommended by the World Health Organization are set to a CT of 45. These excessively high CTs guarantee the appearance of widespread (pandemic) infection when infection rates are in fact low.
The CT Is the Key to the Pandemic
Many if not most laboratories amplify the RNA collected far too many times, which results in healthy people testing “positive” for SARS-CoV-2 infection and being ordered to take off work and self-isolate for two weeks. MEROKEETY Women’... Buy New $38.99 (as of 08:23 UTC - Details)
To optimize accuracy and avoid imposing unnecessary hardship on healthy people, PCR tests must be run at far fewer cycles than the 40 to 45 CTs currently recommended.
Beyond 34 cycles, your chance of a positive PCR test being a true positive shrinks to zero.
An April 2020 study6 in the European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases showed that to get 100% confirmed real positives, the PCR test must be run at 17 cycles. Above 17 cycles, accuracy drops dramatically.
By the time you get to 33 cycles, the accuracy rate is a mere 20%, meaning 80% are false positives. Beyond 34 cycles, your chance of a positive PCR test being a true positive shrinks to zero, as illustrated in the following graph from that study.7
By running PCR tests at 40 to 45 amplification cycles, you end up with the false appearance of an outbreak, and this grossly flawed testing scheme is what government leaders are basing their mask mandates and lockdown orders on.

Scientific Review Confirms PCR Flaws
oxiuly Women’s V... Buy New $29.96 (as of 08:23 UTC - Details) More recently, a December 3, 2020, systematic review8 published in the journal of Clinical Infectious Diseases assessed the findings of 29 different studies — all of which were published in 2020 — comparing evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection with the CTs used in testing. They also looked at the timing of the test, and how symptom severity relates to PCR test results. As reported by the authors:
“The data suggest a relationship between the time from onset of symptom to the timing of the specimen test, cycle threshold (CT) and symptom severity. Twelve studies reported that CT values were significantly lower and log copies higher in specimens producing live virus culture.
Two studies reported the odds of live virus culture reduced by approximately 33% for every one unit increase in CT. Six of eight studies reported detectable RNA for longer than 14 days but infectious potential declined after day 8 even among cases with ongoing high viral loads …”
In other words, if you have symptoms of COVID-19, by Day 8 from the onset of symptoms, the chances of you spreading it to others starts to decline, and in the days following, you are unlikely to be infectious even if you still test positive. This is particularly true if the PCR test is using a higher than ideal CT. As noted by the authors:9
“Complete live viruses are necessary for transmission, not the fragments identified by PCR. Prospective routine testing of reference and culture specimens and their relationship to symptoms, signs and patient co-factors should be used to define the reliability of PCR for assessing infectious potential. Those with high cycle threshold are unlikely to have infectious potential.”
Live Virus Unlikely in Tests Using CT Above 24
According to The New York Times,10 researchers have been “unable to grow the coronavirus out of samples from volunteers whose PCR tests had CT values above 27,” and if the virus cannot replicate, you will not get ill and are not infectious, so you cannot spread it to others.
The Clinical Infectious Diseases review11 confirms this. Under the heading “The Relationship Between RT-PCR Results and Viral Culture of SARS-CoV-2,”12 they point out that “significantly lower” CTs were used in studies that correctly identified infectious patients.
Five of the studies included were unable to identify any live viruses in cases where a positive PCR test had used a CT above 24. What’s more, in order to produce live virus culture, a patient whose PCR test used a CT at or above 35 had to be symptomatic.
So, to clarify, if you have symptoms of COVID-19 and test positive using a PCR test that was run at 35 amplification cycles or higher, then you are likely to be infected and infectious.
However, if you do not have symptoms, yet test positive using a PCR test run at 35 CTs or higher, then it is likely a false positive and you pose no risk to others as you’re unlikely to carry any live virus. In fact, provided you’re asymptomatic, you’re unlikely to be infectious even if you test positive with a test run at 24 CTs or higher.
Timing of PCR Test Also Matters
The Clinical Infectious Diseases review also confirmed that the timing of the test matters. According to the authors:13
“… there appears to be a time window during which RNA detection is at its highest with low cycle threshold and higher possibility of culturing a live virus, with viral load and probability of growing live virus of SARS-CoV2 …
We propose that further work should be done on this with the aim of constructing an algorithm for integrating the results of PCR with other variables, to increase the effectiveness of detecting infectious patients.”
uguest Women Long Slee... Buy New $24.99 (as of 08:23 UTC - Details) Another scientific review14,15 that looked into how the timing of the test influences results and your risk of being infectious was posted on the preprint server medRxiv September 29, 2020. Fourteen studies were included in this review.
The data show that your chances of getting a true positive on the first day of COVID-19 symptom onset is only about 40%. Not until Day 3 from symptom onset do you have an 80% chance of getting an accurate PCR result.
By Day 5 the accuracy shrinks considerably and by Day 8 the accuracy is nil. Now, these are symptomatic people. When you’re asymptomatic, your odds of a positive PCR test being accurate is virtually nonexistent.
The graph below, from one of the studies16 included in the review (Bullard et. al.), illustrates the probability of a patient being infectious (having live virus) based on the CT used and the timing of the test. As explained by the review authors:17
“The figure … shows how the probability of SARS-CoV-2 infectious virus is greater (the red bars) when the cycle threshold is lower (the blue line) and when symptoms to test time is shorter — beyond 8 days, no live virus was detected.”
Florida to Require Disclosure of CT Data
Even though health authorities know that high CTs result in high rates of false positives, they do not specify the CT used for the PCR tests they’re reporting. Fortunately, that’s about to change in Florida, which just became the first state to require all labs in the state to report the CT used for their PCR tests.18
The Florida Health Department issued the order December 3, 2020, and labs must comply with the new mandatory reporting rule within seven days.19
This could prove quite interesting, especially if the state health department decides to invalidate positive results obtained from tests run above a certain amplification threshold. Time will tell exactly how this reporting requirement might influence pandemic response measures such as mask mandates and lockdowns.
Portugal Rules Quarantine Based on PCR Results Is Unlawful
In related news, an appeals court in Portugal recently ruled20,21 that the PCR test is “not a reliable test for SARS-CoV-2” and that “a single positive PCR test cannot be used as an effective diagnosis of infection.” Therefore, “any enforced quarantine based on the results is unlawful.”22
The court also noted that forcing healthy people to self-isolate could be a violation of their fundamental right to liberty. The case was brought by four German tourists who had been forced to self-quarantine after one of them tested positive.
Several scientific studies were brought forth as evidence in this case, including a September 28, 2020, study23 in Clinical Infectious Diseases, which found that when you run a PCR test at a CT of 35 or higher, the accuracy drops to 3%, resulting in a 97% false positive rate. The court ruled that, based on the science presented, any PCR test using a CT over 25 is unreliable.
Fatal Errors Found in Paper on Which PCR Testing Is Based
The Portuguese appeals court is not alone in its critique of the PCR test being used as the sole criteria for quarantine. November 30, 2020, the scientific paper24 describing the work flow of how to use the PCR test to diagnose SARS-CoV-2 infection — which was quickly accepted as the standard by the WHO and applied across the world — was challenged25 by 22 international scientists who demand that the paper be retracted due to “fatal errors.”26
The paper in question was written by Christian Drosten, Ph.D., a German virologist, and Victor Corman, who heads a German working group on virus diagnostics and clinical virology. According to Reiner Fuellmich,27 founding member of the German Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee (Außerparlamentarischer Corona Untersuchungsausschuss,28 or ACU),29,30 Drosten is a key culprit in the COVID-19 pandemic hoax.
One of the key “fatal errors” in the Corman-Drosten paper is that they wrote it — and developed the PCR test — before there was any viral isolate available. All they used was the genetic sequence published online by Chinese scientists in January 2020.
Interestingly, the paper was published a mere 24 hours after it was submitted, which suggests it wasn’t even peer-reviewed before being embraced by the whole world. Undercover DC interviewed Kevin Corbett, Ph.D., one of the 22 scientists who are now demanding the paper’s retraction, who stated:31
“Every scientific rationale for the development of that test has been totally destroyed by this paper. It’s like Hiroshima/Nagasaki to the COVID test.
When Drosten developed the test, China hadn’t given them a viral isolate. They developed the test from a sequence in a gene bank. Do you see? China gave them a genetic sequence with no corresponding viral isolate. They had a code, but no body for the code. No viral morphology.
In the fish market, it’s like giving you a few bones and saying ‘that’s your fish.’ It could be any fish … Listen, the Corman-Drosten paper, there’s nothing from a patient in it. It’s all from gene banks. And the bits of the virus sequence that weren’t there they made up.
They synthetically created them to fill in the blanks. That’s what genetics is; it’s a code. So, its ABBBCCDDD and you’re missing some, what you think is EEE, so you put it in … This is basically a computer virus.
There are 10 fatal errors in this Drosten test paper … But here is the bottom line: There was no viral isolate to validate what they were doing. The PCR products of the amplification didn’t correspond to any viral isolate at that time. I call it ‘donut ring science.’ There is nothing at the center of it. It’s all about code, genetics, nothing to do with reality …
There have since been papers saying they’ve produced viral isolates. But there are no controls for them. The CDC produced a paper in July … where they said: ‘Here’s the viral isolate.’ Do you know what they did? They swabbed one person. One person, who’d been to China and had cold symptoms. One person. And they assumed he had [COVID-19] to begin with. So, it’s all full of holes, the whole thing.”
No Viable Virus Found in Positive Cases
The critique against PCR testing is further strengthened by a November 20, 2020, study32 in Nature Communications, which found no viable virus in PCR-positive cases. The study evaluated data from 9,865,404 residents of Wuhan, China, who had undergone PCR testing between May 14 and June 1, 2020.
A total of 300 tested positive but had no symptoms. Of the 34,424 people with a history of COVID-19, 107 tested positive a second time. Yet when they did virus cultures on these 407 individuals who had tested positive (either for the first or second time), no live virus was found.
Expose the Fraud, End the Misery
A number of experts have now come forward, calling out the COVID-19 pandemic as a cruel hoax perpetuated by fatally flawed testing. Aside from this testing data, there’s no evidence of a lethal pandemic at all. While there is such a thing as COVID-19, and people have and do die from it, there are no excess deaths due to it.33,34,35

Immigrants from Mexico are coming to the border and calling for an ambulance to get them into hospital emergency rooms. They are letting illegals fill the hospitals and ICUs and then calling it an all-time high epidemic. The State created a new “patient transfer system” that has flooded hospitals.
Some border hospitals in California are having to fly patients to surrounding facilities because their ICU beds are full. This influx of immigrants in need of COVID-care has been going on since May.
