That makes sense, and although i dont know what exactly your background is, its clear you understand the things you talk about, so i respect you input 100%.
My issue is are they not just using a pcr test? The creator of this test was clear when stating it is not meant for this. Practically every human has a cell of something in there system, and if you try hard enough you can find whatever you want, but that doesnt make it relevant. Also isnt the common cold a type of corona virus? I dont really know anyone who has never had a cold. Also the flu shot. Is that a traditional vaccine where they inject you with a little bit of virus? Could we be finding the leftovers of that?
Also i find it hard to believe that the supposed thousands of tests per day are being sent to a lab for closer diagnostics. These would have to be huge facilities with thousands of employees in every state, province in the world to keep up would t they? I would love to see the msm give us a virtual tour of these facilities. Show us how it works. Maybe that would end the skeptisim?
But when asked yesterday, Bidens flack told the country they dont need to know how they determine if its reg or delta. To me, thats a red flag.
I don’t really see the testing side. Just what I’ve picked up along the way so I can reasonably understand what I need to know.
so although I have a somewhat working knowledge of some things, take what I say about the testing side of things with a grain of salt. I’m more a prevention guy…. Long before covid was a thing with other respiratory and enteric diseases that effected at risk sectors.
I have to try to stay out of the politics as best I can and just apply my knowledge of IPAC to this illness just as I would any other. Otherwise I’d be in waypoint by now. (An institution for the criminally insane).
the PCR is nothing but a presence absence test so to speak. It’s there to identify proteins consistent with this strain of coronavirus. It’s an excellent tool…. When it’s used properly. I’m not so sure it is in this case or has been for covid. Part of that problem is the attenuation that’s allowed to identify the proteins. That’s why I believe we see so many asymptomatic folks. As I’ve said repeatedly… exposed yes…. Clinically infected though? I’m not so sure. That leads to the second problem. It should be used to confirm cases in those with symptoms. That’s how diagnosis of like has always worked… for some reason not here. I believe this idea was proposed with swine flu or H1N1 once upon a time but it was not allowed. And what we see now is why. Also a possible reason as to why we see these breakthrough cases with folks who were labelled covid positive already and now sick. Perhaps they were never actually infected amd only exposed with measurable protein in their system, but not infected. And now infected.
this is what happens when such things aren’t explained and understood or purposefully misrepresented.
as far as the genetic testing to determine if it’s a variant. It’s a different test. That’s much of what I know. And that the variants are identified on the mutations associated with each different mutation.
I’m not sure of all the testing locations and what locations test got what. Local hospitals do some here as do private companies such as life labs.
not exactly sure who does the gen
The genetic tests aren’t always done and I believe come by order of public health and are outbreak specific. Not as much is being done now as I understand because this delta one has been acknowledged as the vastly dominant strain. At least here. To be more sure of how much and why….. that would be best answered by the infectious disease section of both local and provincial public health units I would think.
my general understanding though. Again the after isn’t really my bag…. It’s the prevention and where we’re the gaps in places like LTCH’s and schools.
as far as the lady on that stand being asked those questions. Perfect example of a trapped person that doesn’t understand what she is talking about and panics. Looks bad…. But it was probably mostly stemming from being trapped and not knowing how to answer the question. These people need to understand that it is better sometimes to just say you don’t know and try to defer to someone else or pin it and get back to them. Otherwise their credibility becomes non existent. Far too much of that these days.
government transparency and direction has been the absolute shits. There’s probably at least a million things they’ve done wrong. Some I completely understand…. Most i just shake my head and can’t understand in the slightest.
