If it’s a lie it was reported by the NYT last summer.
That’s an approved source, right?
LMAO. There is a reduction from the super spreader holiday season. The doctor you quoted has no business commenting on the virus. He's no better than the clown that trump installed in order to push his propaganda, contrary to what all the experts said.
But then, you were excited when there were 61 cases.
Bullshit. Quote the 90% false positive rate.
I have more business commenting than the fool from Fox that someone had to dig pretty deeply to find.What business do you have in commenting on it lol?
According to World0Meters the 7 day moving average of new positive tests both globally and in America peaked on Jan 11. We have been on the decline ever since.
Up to, a 90% false positive rate.
Started a thread on it back in the summer and have been bitching about it ever since.
Why do you think the WHO had to revise their PCR guidelines?
Nope, some people are totally unaware they are/were infected.
Granted, prior to the PCR guideline change they may have simply gotten a false positive. Starting to see what a mess our data is.
Up to, a 90% false positive rate.

Yeah, you can partially explain it in change of behavior. Travel and close gatherings from the holidays is over.
“Likely”, “perhaps”, “may well be”, “could well be”. How many more definitive answers does he have?

And why 40 reps was the standard when it never should have been, when doing so so skewed the data, is something that we need to know, have a right to know, would know if we still had journalists.
Up to 90 percent of the people who receive a positive test are carrying so little virus that they probably aren’t contagious.
This is because testing used something called a PCR test.
In this test, a test sample is run through a machine that amplifies any DNA particles found in it. Each time you run the sample through the machine you amplify the DNA a bit more.
•In the current PCR testing, they run that sample through 40 times.
This number of amplification cycles needed to find the virus, called the cycle threshold, is never included in the results sent to doctors and coronavirus patients, although it could tell them how infectious the patients are.

•In the current PCR testing, they run that sample through 40 times.
This number of amplification cycles needed to find the virus, called the cycle threshold, is never included in the results sent to doctors and coronavirus patients, although it could tell them how infectious the patients are.
In three sets of testing data that include cycle thresholds, compiled by officials in Massachusetts, New York and Nevada, up to 90 percent of people testing positive carried barely any virus, a review by The Times found.
On Thursday, the United States recorded 45,604 new coronavirus cases, according to a database maintained by The Times.
If the rates of contagiousness in Massachusetts and New York were to apply nationwide, then perhaps only 4,500 of those people may actually need to isolate and submit to contact tracing.
• The standard for these tests is 30-35 cycles.
•By cycling to 40 times, it means we have positive infection counts that are about 10 times higher than they really are.
Any test with a cycle threshold above 35 is too sensitive, agreed Juliet Morrison, a virologist at the University of California, Riverside. “I’m shocked that people would think that 40 could represent a positive,” she said
Epidemiologist Dr. Michael Mina from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health told The Times that a proper cutoff would be somewhere between 30-35 cycles. That would mean the amount of viral DNA in the sample would have to be 100 to 1,000 times higher to generate a positive result.
So this is, let's go with the vernacular, part of the "hoax".
We've been fed data that infectious cases are currently at 6.04 million when, because of the way this test is being done, may actually only be a little over 600,000.
But it may be even lower:
Officials at the Wadsworth Center, New York’s state lab, have access to C.T. values from tests they have processed, and analyzed their numbers at The Times’s request.
In July, the lab identified 794 positive tests, based on a threshold of 40 cycles.
With a cutoff of 35, about half of those tests would no longer qualify as positive. About 70 percent would no longer be judged positive if the cycles were limited to 30.
In Massachusetts, from 85 to 90 percent of people who tested positive in July with a cycle threshold of 40 would have been deemed negative if the threshold were 30 cycles, Dr. Mina said. “I would say that none of those people should be contact-traced, not one,” he said.
Other experts informed of these numbers were stunned.
The virus is most definitely real. The actual case count ... not so much.

We’ll Have Herd Immunity by April
Covid cases have dropped 77% in six weeks. Experts should level with the public about the good news.

Johns Hopkins Doctor Predicts Covid ‘Will Be Mostly Gone By April’

Funny how that worked...
I read that article way back when. I’m past my limit for the month so I can’t open it now. Your comprehension skills suck. What it DID say was:
“Up to 90 percent of people testing positive carried barely any virus”.
The article, however, does not say the PCR tests gave a ‘false positive’ result by incorrectly detecting the virus in people who are not infected. Instead, it questions whether the test should be used to determine how infectious a person is after they have contracted COVID-19.
Illiterate fucking morons.

Whether they are unaware or not is irrelevant, still doesn’t prove existence of a natural immunity
90% false positive rate is a fucking lie. You quoted nothing.
