WHO (Finally) Admits PCR Tests Create False Positives

Authored by Kit Knightly via Off-Guardian.org,

Warnings concerning high CT value of tests are months too late…so why are they appearing now? The potential explanation is shockingly cynical…

The World Health Organization released a guidance memo on December 14th, warning that high cycle thresholds on PCR tests will result in false positives.

While this information is accurate, it has also been available for months, so we must ask: why are they reporting it now? Is it to make it appear the vaccine works?

The “gold standard” Sars-Cov-2 tests are based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR works by taking nucleotides – tiny fragments of DNA or RNA – and replicating them until they become something large enough to identify. The replication is done in cycles, with each cycle doubling the amount of genetic material. The number of cycles it takes to produce something identifiable is known as the “cycle threshold” or “CT value”. The higher the CT value, the less likely you are to be detecting anything significant.

This new WHO memo states that using a high CT value to test for the presence of Sars-Cov-2 will result in false-positive results.

To quote their own words [our emphasis]:

Users of RT-PCR reagents should read the IFU carefully to determine if manual adjustment of the PCR positivity threshold is necessary to account for any background noise which may lead to a specimen with a high cycle threshold (Ct) value result being interpreted as a positive result.

They go on to explain [again, our emphasis]:

The design principle of RT-PCR means that for patients with high levels of circulating virus (viral load), relatively few cycles will be needed to detect virus and so the Ct value will be low. Conversely, when specimens return a high Ct value, it means that many cycles were required to detect virus. In some circumstances, the distinction between background noise and actual presence of the target virus is difficult to ascertain.

Of course, none of this is news to anyone who has been paying attention. That PCR tests were easily manipulated and potentially highly inaccurate has been one of the oft-repeated battle cries of those of us opposing the “pandemic” narrative, and the policies it’s being used to sell.

Many articles have been written about it, by many experts in the field, medical journalists and other researchers. It’s been commonly available knowledge, for months now, that any test using a CT value over 35 is potentially meaningless.

Dr Kary Mullis, who won the Nobel Prize for inventing the PCR process, was clear that it wasn’t meant as a diagnostic tool, saying:

with PCR, if you do it well, you can find almost anything in anybody.”

And, commenting on cycle thresholds, once said:

If you have to go more than 40 cycles to amplify a single-copy gene, there is something seriously wrong with your PCR.”

The MIQE guidelines for PCR use state:

Cq values higher than 40 are suspect because of the implied low efficiency and generally should not be reported,”

This has all been public knowledge since the beginning of the lockdown. The Australian government’s own website admitted the tests were flawed, and a court in Portugal ruled they were not fit for purpose.

Even Dr Anthony Fauci has publicly admitted that a cycle threshold over 35 is going to be detecting “dead nucleotides”, not a living virus.

Despite all this, it is known that many labs around the world have been using PCR tests with CT values over 35, even into the low 40s.

So why has the WHO finally decided to say this is wrong? What reason could they have for finally choosing to recognise this simple reality?

The answer to that is potentially shockingly cynical: We have a vaccine now. We don’t need false positives anymore.

Notionally, the system has produced its miracle cure.

So, after everyone has been vaccinated, all the PCR tests being done will be done “under the new WHO guidelines”, and running only 25-30 cycles instead of 35+.

Lo and behold, the number of “positive cases” will plummet, and we’ll have confirmation that our miracle vaccine works.

After months of flooding the data pool with false positives, miscounting deaths “by accident”, adding “Covid19 related death” to every other death certificate…they can stop. The create-a-pandemic machine can be turned down to zero again.

…as long as we all do as we’re told. Any signs of dissent – masses of people refusing the vaccine, for example – and the CT value can start to climb again, and they bring back their magical disease.

Yeah, sure the PRC Ct goes to 25 and miraculously the vaccines save the world but also they have to save face. It was getting to be common knowledge the Ct was far too elevated to be realistic. They would look like assholes if they kept the Ct at 40. So, now they are only lying bastards. They get to drop “assholes” from their list of pertinent descriptors.

I called the lab Ohio uses and they told me they work @40 CTs, per CDC guidance.

The WV lab, Q labs, returned my call but, said they didn’t have that info and would refer my call.

Still waiting 2 weeks later.

They achieved their goal. The data for all the testing will never be shared. Florida is the ONLY state requiring the CT number accompany the test result, but even they will do NOTHING with it of any substance. And of course once the vaccine has been given to millions they will drop the mandate to 25 and “magically” the positive rate will fall precipitously. Then they will destroy all the evidence and tell us all to simply “move on.” Even a Trump second term will not save us from those lies – unless he goes after this bullshit too.

“and “magically” the positive rate will fall precipitously”-well duh, that can only happen because the vaccine is working, just like they promised. P.T. Barnum has met his match.

Just like MASKS, the PCR covid test is worthless and is largely responsible for this insane pandemic scare.
WAKE UP! Quit wearing masks and tell them to shove their unnecessary vaccines up their ASS!!

This is a fair description of what is actually happening in our country RIGHT NOW.
If you don’t help put an end to it, your children and grand children will grow up as SLAVES,

the WHO deleted the document for some reason (nothing nefarious probably 😉
it can still be found here
