President Biden’s massive increase in home-based rapid antigen tests will lead to a tsunami of false-positive results, which will indefinitely extend the current “casedemic.”
The idea is to allow people to test themselves before attending social events, school, going to work, etc., so they can know, almost in real time, whether they may be infectious.
On its face, this seems like a reasonable approach. Why wouldn’t having more information about possible infections be a good thing?
Here’s why that’s actually a really bad idea. Mass testing of people who are overwhelmingly asymptomatic (showing no symptoms) will in fact inevitably extend this pandemic nightmare for additional months — maybe even years — as “cases” continue to mount from false positives (a test result that incorrectly identifies infection when none exists).
To be clear: Biden’s mass testing approach is exactly the opposite of what is needed right now. We should not be testing asymptomatic people.
The reason for this becomes clear only by looking beyond the headlines that claim skyrocketing cases and deaths from the infection.
The accuracy of the case, hospitalization and death numbers are a function of the accuracy of the screening tests we are implementing. Inaccurate tests will naturally lead to inaccurate data.
However, the distortion of these numbers is more than just a matter of the accuracy of our screening tests as will be explained below.
Though the public generally understands every test will have some amount of inherent error, we are told that the widely used COVID-19 tests are very accurate and thus we can trust the reports of “NEW CASES” shouted daily from most mainstream media platforms.
The reality is that even when a reasonably accurate test is used on a population that has a low background prevalence of active disease, the majority of positive test results will, in fact, be false.
Story at-a-glance
- Many health officials and world leaders are finally acknowledging that the COVID shots cannot end the pandemic and that we must learn to live with the virus. Some have even started speaking out against repeated boosters
- A major driver for this U-turn in the pandemic narrative is the emergence of the Omicron variant. While incredibly infectious, it causes only mild cold symptoms in the vast majority of people; it’s ripping through populations, leaving natural herd immunity in its wake. As a result, many are now claiming the end of the pandemic is in sight
- Nearly 100% of COVID cases in the Boston area are now Omicron. In New England, the current outbreak is predicted to rapidly wane and disappear during the month of February 2022. As of early January 2022, Omicron was responsible for about 73% of all COVID cases in the U.S.
- After two years of repetitive fearmongering, most people have had enough. The general consensus appears to be that people are ready to brave life even if the threat of COVID remains
- With that baseline of natural immunity that Omicron provides, populations will, going forward, be far better equipped to handle any new strains that emerge, without a significant increase in mortality
For nearly a year, experts have noted that the COVID shots cannot establish herd immunity to end the pandemic, as the gene transfer injections do not prevent infection or transmission.
It’s not rocket science, yet health officials and government leaders around the world have irrationally claimed otherwise, and censored any and all — regardless of credentials — who dared to suggest alternative approaches.
Now, all of a sudden, the narrative is rapidly changing, with loads of these same individuals — truthfully, if you can believe that — acknowledging that the COVID “vaccines” cannot end the pandemic and that we need to learn to live with the virus. Some have even started speaking out against repeated boosters, at least at intervals of three to four months.
