Fact check: Genomic sequencing, not PCR testing, detects COVID-19 variants

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/07/31/fact-check-covid-19-pcr-tests-dont-detect-virus-variants/5407334001/

Oh right, so are people currently being tested via Genomic Sequencing ,and not With a PCR ? 

I find it all a bit confusing be honest ????

BA and EVA not flying direct from Heathrow now.

Just leaves Thai airways to have a field day rinsing the people who wish to fly directly to BKK.

Seems BA knows there will be no demand for low season travel to Thailand with all the hoop jumping and restrictions. They have obviously had a look at forward bookings.

Not everyone wants to travel through the middle east hubs adding another covid infection opportunity into an already stressful journey.

Was having a look for a friend near Manx for the quickest flight for him.

this was the only one ( not sore about Heathrow

Ive been trying that   Chang Cold Brew beer.    Very nice drop with a malt flavour, but    jesus wept  does it  get my stomach going the next day, unlike regular Chang or Leo.   I'll be brave though, and persevere.

Have tried the Chang coffee~Infused one.

In Switzerland , they now deny you the option of choice of euthanasia.

If you have not been fully vaccinated.

Oh the irony.

It might be different where you are, but i am sure i had to produce my certificate of residence within a few days.

How does the PCR test differentiate which particular variant or strain someone might have ?

Serious question though , i have always wondered.

I wonder why the PCR tests are having trouble detecting this strain?

I think sometimes ,they can give false positives or negatives unfortunately.
