No, I have only watched several videos of lectures from several doctors and epidemiologists about how they have never actually cultured the virus to prove it even exists. There have been no electron microscopes actually looking at the "virus."I've never run into an article from any of them. Got any? (PS no tv)OL, there are plenty of epidemiologists and medical experts who have said that we should have never shut down in the first place.Ivanka's Masks is a great idea! One you can breathe through. I tried a bra cup. Couldn't breathe. My neighbor offered a bandanna. But no one around here is wearing one yet, so I've got a little time to hold out for Ivanka's.Well I think the lock down is mostly state and local government decisions. Unless he issues some executive order, it still up to them. He is talking about having a meeting with various businesses and state official's about how the country should be reopen. Does it required a meeting or do the states and governors just lift the lock down based on advise of health care professionals or CDC. Personally the way this virus can be transmitted even with people who show the symptoms, its will be a tough decision. Obviously it can go on for long.
Ivanka could start a line of fashionable masks, that will turn their heads and people cannot help but give a thumbs up salute.
Still, I just hope the right people make the right decision and we already know Trump will take the credit.
Just because your TEE VEE and the corporate press hasn't rolled them in front of you, doesn't mean that they are not well respected and experts in their field.
I have also found out about how the PCR test is not a gold standard test.
IT is a very complex topic that cannot be summed up in a short article, you would need to watch an hour. . . hour and half lecture to really understand what is going on, I am sorry.
I found an article, but it is VERY complex.
In short, depending on how you DO the test, will actually, believe it or not, sometimes, for some diseases, determine the results.
For instance, even YOU could have, according to the diagnostic criteria for lung cancer, have those types of cells in YOUR lungs, if those tests were amplified enough times. However, your immune system will deal with that threat in a timely fashion.
What this means, is, chances are, a very large percentage of the population already has Covid-19. The CDC and FDA wanted to maintain control of testing protocols, and not have either independent authorities, or the WHO, or the State authorities have authority over the testing procedures, so that they would be the ones would be allowed to determine how many times the PCR test could be amplified. This then, determines how many folks will "test positive for the virus."
. . . and thus, will enable the media to promote scare tactics and then political police state measures.
Here, I found a pretty unbiased article here;

Diagnostic Testing for the Novel Coronavirus
This Viewpoint explains the technical and regulatory challenges that hampered diagnostic testing for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) during the early spread of infection in the US and considers the unintended consequences of making testing more widely available,...jamanetwork.com
Two good lectures telling the truth about what is going on here;
The article referenced in that last video is here, if you care to try to comprehend it.

The folks that run things like to suppress stuff. That is why you are in prison now.
He also does a much better job of making the PCR test issue understandable.
"From āCDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panelā [1]:
āDetection of viral RNA may not indicate the presence of infectious virus or that 2019-nCoV is the causative agent for clinical symptoms.ā
Translation: A positive test doesnāt guarantee that the COVID virus is causing infection at all. And, ahem, reading between the lines, maybe the COVID virus might not be in the patientās body at all, either.
From the World Health Organization (WHO): āCoronavirus disease (COVID-19) technical guidance: Laboratory testing for 2019-nCoV in humansā [2]:
āSeveral assays that detect the 2019-nCoV have been and are currently under development, both in-house and commercially. Some assays may detect only the novel virus [COVID] and some may also detect other strains (e.g. SARS-CoV) that are genetically similar.ā
Translation: Some PCR tests register positive for types of coronavirus that have nothing to do with COVIDāincluding plain old coronas that cause nothing more than a cold.
The WHO document adds this little piece: āProtocol use limitations: Optional clinical specimens for testing has [have] not yet been validated.ā
Translation: Weāre not sure which tissue samples to take from the patient, in order for the test to have any validity.
From the FDA: āLabCorp COVID-19RT-PCR test EUA Summary: ACCELERATED EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION (EUA) SUMMARYCOVID-19 RT-PCR TEST (LABORATORY CORPORATION OF AMERICA)ā [3]:
āā¦The SARS-CoV-2RNA [COVID virus] is generally detectable in respiratory specimens during the acute phase of infection. Positive results are indicative of the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA; clinical correlation with patient history and other diagnostic information is necessary to determine patient infection statusā¦THE AGENT DETECTED MAY NOT BE THE DEFINITE CAUSE OF DISEASE (CAPS are mine). Laboratories within the United States and its territories are required to report all positive results to the appropriate public health authorities.ā
Translation: On the one hand, we claim the test can āgenerallyā detect the presence of the COVID virus in a patient. But we admit that āthe agent detectedā on the test, by which we mean COVID, āmay not be the definite cause of disease.ā We also admit that, unless the patient has an acute infection, we canāt find COVID. Therefore, the idea of āasymptomatic patientsā confirmed by the test is nonsense. And even though a positive test for COVID may not indicate the actual cause of disease, all positive tests must be reportedāand they will be counted as āCOVID cases.ā Regardless.
