Tested 'Positive' For COVID-19? Be Sure To Ask This Question

The lockdowns are based on
surging “cases” which are based on positive PCR test results.
However, what exactly is a positive PCR test result? What does
it mean? As Dr. Tommy Megremis summarized recently:
If you are generally aware, the PCR test is used to amplify small amount of genetic material
so as to recognize patterns of DNA by “cycling.” (Also,
for RNA virus, the RNA is converted to DNA in order to be detected, it’s just
the way the test works) This is how we have been able to recognize the genomes
in Egyptian mummies and Wooly Mammoths. It works because if you amplify and
cycle enough times to “grow” legitimate DNA fragments, you get something with a
fair amount of specificity. What
is becoming more and more apparent is that the PCR test was not designed as a
diagnostic tool for infection, and really cannot function
as one without having a huge amount of false positives, period.
When it comes to COVID, the presence of viral particles picked up
by the PCR technique does not and has not been quantitatively linked to an
active “symptomatic” infection. It simply cannot be
so, because infection threshold as a result of viral load is different for each
patient. It turns out, if you “cycle” over around 25 times, the false
positivity of COVID infection starts getting very high.
I and others have explained in blogs how people can be exposed
to virus, and mount a simple innate immune response and never know any
differently. When
you test these people with very low viral loads, who are not sick, you can find
the viral RNA code that is used to “diagnose” if you cycle enough times. The
last I read, Labcorp cycles at least 40 times to detect viral genome fragments. The
PCR test was never intended for diagnosis of infection but as a qualitative
test for presence of parts of a virus genome. I know there has been some
confusion circulating the net about what the inventor Kary Mullis had said
about that. But we walk daily with people who have any number of parts of killer
virus or bacterial genomes which one could pick up with a PCR test if one had
the specific test for it. Would
we claim that that individual was an infected patient? No!
So given all that, PeakProsperity's Chris Martenson explains below,
in great details, the answer to the
most important question you should ask if you or a loved one gets a positive
PCR test result.
“What’s the Cycle Threshold (CT) value for
that test?”
Sounds wonky but it’s actually really important to understand. A
low CT value means someone is loaded with virus. A high value, oppositely,
means less of a viral load.
Beyond a certain level the load is insufficient to either infect
someone else or be of any clinical or epidemiological relevance whatsoever.
The problem? Governments all over the country and world are basing
their decisions on CT values that are very high. Too high.
