PCR test changes cause Worl Cases to collapes.

“..On Inauguration Day, the World Health Organization, after consultation with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, issued a two-part directive intended to reduce the number of what it calls “false positive” COVID cases that clarifies only the corrupt political nature of everything surrounding the pandemic.

Throughout 2020, doctors and hospitals had been encouraged—if not pressured—to label as COVID any set of symptoms that looked remotely like it (explaining why cases of influenza almost disappeared from the United States last year). Now the WHO asked them to make sure that in order for a case to be labeled COVID, symptoms must also match positive results of the standard PCR test.

Simultaneously, the WHO strongly suggested that those who administer the PCR test reduce the number of cycles through which samples are processed. Through 2020, most jurisdictions in America had run samples through 40 cycles. Running that many cycles radically increases the chances of a positive result. This not only inflated the number of “cases,” but it also attributed hospitalizations to COVID-19 rather than to other causes. It led to patients being treated as if they had COVID rather than for what really ailed them, and attributing deaths to COVID that in fact were not..”

This timely and ‘convenient’ change in Covid diagnosis issued by the WHO, just as a new president was sworn in and just following the rollout of vaccinations throughout the US, UK, Europe and other nations, was perfectly timed to make it appear that the vaccines saved us from Covid. Hail the miracle of smoke and mirrors!

In addition to the change in Covid diagnosis issued by the WHO just following the rollout of vaccinations to make it appear that the vaccines are saving us from Covid, UK health officials actually replaced PCR testing with LFD testing to ensure Covid case numbers plunged following vaccination. More smoke & mirrors...

Three huge but unannounced changes regarding 'case' counting in the UK are the keys to reducing the ‘casedemic’;

Interestingly, now they can only count a positive LFD test as a COVID-19 case if accompanied with symptoms or in probable contact with asymptomatic/PCR Positive individual.

These BIG unilateral decisions were:

1. Between 10-20th Nov, PHE started including LFD data in Test Volume & Cases metrics.

2. As of 5th Jan 2021, a massive scaling of asymptomatic LFD tests commenced across community, business, and healthcare staff.

3. As of 27th Jan 2021, Positive LFD tests no longer (on a temp basis) require a confirmatory PCR test to be treated as a case, contact traced and subject to self-isolation rules.

The outcome of these decisions are enormous! Firstly, the affect these decisions had on "cases" and overall test positivity.

Secondly, this allows for the UK Govt to ween themselves off the clinically questionable PCR test.

UK Govt are now performing more LFD than PCR tests.

Moreover, they have been dialing down PCR volumes since early Jan. Lo and behold, look what has been happening to "cases" and positivity.

Currently in the UK, PCR tests have a positivity rate of 11.7% (1 in 9), whilst LFD tests have a tiny value of 0.6% (1 in 167)!

Add the winter seasonality effect on respiratory viruses and mortality burden is tapering down from here on out - and voila!

It’s the perfect story. All thanks to ‘lockdowns, vaccines, travel bans and mask mandates’ - naturally...

It's looking pretty clear, as declared from the outset, that this variant mania instigated mid-December was and is a red herring to get everyone in line for vaccination.

And regarding the vaccine push... well, the timing is awfully convenient, effectively riding on the coattails of this testing pivot, the PCR Ct/weak positive cautions by WHO, and the RV/mortality seasonality curve.

The only fly in the ointment re the Vaccine push is the total mortality data is looking concerning, and there is a lot of scientific concern about the UK strategy of single dosing and experimentation on the most frail.

These testing pivots are considered temporary… so the Govt can swing back to PCR whenever they want/need more cases.
