A Crash Course on the BS-19 PCR Test

Video Transcript:

Okay, you've all had time to research the COVID PCR test. So what questions or comments do you have? Does everyone need to take the COVID test? Yes, everyone should take the COVID test. They should take it regularly, at least twice a week, which is the requirement for most colleges and public schools. I read that by law. No one can be forced to take the COVID PCR test. Is that true? Technically, you are correct. The Food and Drug Administration has not fully approved the COVID PCR test and therefore it is not required. It has only approved under emergency use. Besides, why would anyone want to opt out of the COVID test? I'm confused. What does emergency use mean? Well, emergency use simply means that the Food and Drug Administration can allow a test to be given to the general public, even though that test has not been proven to be effective. They can only do this when an emergency has been declared. Are you saying that just because someone declares an emergency, the FDA can allow a test to be given to people even though that test has not been proven effective by the FDA's own standards? Yes. That's just the way things are when an emergency has been declared. So companies get to make money selling PCR tests that aren't completely reliable? Again, yes. It's not the best system, but it is what we have. I read that in Tanzania, when they applied the COVID PCR test to a goat and a fruit, they both tested positive. That's true. And it was embarrassing. But those things happen. It is unfortunate when such incidents are publicized because it causes people to lose confidence. But Tanzanian government had to stop using the PCR test altogether. That's not a good thing. Just how reliable is the COVID PCR test? That's a difficult question to answer. Let me put it this way. What percentage of people who test positive for COVID are really false positives? That is, they don't have the COVID virus. Some studies show that false positives with the COVID PCR test can be as much as 90%. So why should anyone want to take a COVID PCR test if it is 90% inaccurate? If you don't mind, shouldn't you let others have a chance to speak? I apologize, but this is important. Well, the COVID PCR test is not as reliable as we would like. That is why we advise people to test often and ideally twice a week. Doesn't that mean that if a person tests negative one week, they can still test positive the following week? Unfortunately, that is true. In each time a person tests positive, they will have to go into quarantine. In other words, are you saying that people can test positive again and again when in fact there is nothing wrong with them? Then each time they test positive, they have to go back into quarantine over and over? Am I understanding you correctly? Yes. We all have to make sacrifices for public safety. Most colleges can find students to their rooms for two weeks at a time. It is all about being safe. Does it most parents know that the child is being forced into essentially a college prison again and again, even though the child is perfectly healthy and that it is based on a test that is 90% inaccurate? Most parents do not know about the accuracy problem with the COVID PCR test and they don't need to know. Parents should trust their college officials just as people in general should trust their government. My sister is going to college out of state and she has tested positive three times. Each time the college forced her to stay confined to her room for two weeks. She could not see her friends or even go to the school cafeteria. She's so depressed that my parents are worried that she might try to hurt herself. That is unfortunate, but we must stay focused on the big picture, which is safety. I don't think I want to go to college. I think I'd be better off at a trade school or become a dog walker. I hear that there's a lot of money in walking dogs. We have a bigger problem than with just the colleges. People all across the country are taking this test and being told that they are positive for COVID when in fact they are not infected with COVID. I really don't see why healthy people should even take this COVID test. Again, yes, healthy people should still take the COVID test. Even though a person is healthy, they might still be able to transmit COVID. It's called asymptomatic transmission. I read that study show casual transmission of COVID from healthy people with no symptoms is almost impossible. That's true, but why should anyone take the risk when we at least have the COVID PCR test? Think of it as an extra level of security. Let me get this straight. The COVID PCR test has not been thoroughly tested for accuracy and not fully approved by the FDA. It is only approved for emergency use. By law, no one can be required to take this test. It is so unreliable that a goat and a fruit have tested positive and it produced at least 90% false positives. I have one last question. I sincerely hope so. Dr. Kerry Mollis won the Nobel Prize for inventing PCR. Yes, go on. Well, I watched some of his interviews on the internet. He said that PCR cannot be used to determine whether someone has a viral infection. My question is, should people trust the inventor of PCR or should people trust the company's making money off these PCR tests? No more questions. Class is over for today. Call.
