Does this directly say the test doesn’t work though? I’m looking for a CDC source that more or less says their tests are BS. My company is mandating a weekly testing option and I’m trying to fight against it.
It is BS if they are testing and comparing against nothing. If your job it to look at photos and identify if that photo has a cow in it; but you have no clue what a cow looks like - would you say that your screen, no matter how high definition, no matter how much your magnify the photo, is bogus?
Now let’s say I draw a cartoon picture of what I think a cow might look like? That’s what the PCR test does. It compares a string of KNOWN genetic material against the sample from a suspected case and determines if there is a match. Without a reference standard, it amplifies the sample DNA until it finds enough errors that say “maybe?”
My guess is if they tested the vaccinated, they’d have similar results to those refusing. It’s all political theater with no basis in science, just hope enough of us hold out to push back.
