4MyEgo Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) We all know there is a lot going on with this Covid-19 "pandemic" and there are a lot of sceptics out there, not suggesting that I am one, but have a simple question. I just want to know if there is an actual 100% bullet proof test for the Covid-19, or are those that are being tested, being tested for the Coronavirus as there are a few different Coronaviruses which are similar, yet different to the Covid-19. Time and time again I have heard that the Covid-19 predominantly effects the very old, children under 5, those with weak immune systems and those with preexisting conditions, that said, there have been many who have had mild symptoms, a sore throat, a cough a fever and told to self isolate for 14 days, I mean this is even after they have been tested for the Covid-19. So what is it ? Can it be that they don't actually have a actual 100% bullet proof test for the Covid-19, but will take those in with the really severe symptoms, like the old, children under 5, etc, etc, etc, just trying to get my head around this. If they don't have an actual 100% bullet proof test for the Covid-19, could this be why the numbers appear to be distorted, now I know the flu and pneumonia kill hundreds of thousands of people per year, the latter millions, so could everybody that's being tested, is being tested for the Coronavirus. This is not a theory or me trying to distort anything, just asking a reasonable question and hope this doesn't get shut down, because I couldn't find anything on the web to say that there is an actual 100% bullet proof test for the Covid-19, and this might be a reason why they are only testing those with serious symptoms, and are those tests for the Coronavirus or the Covid-19. You cannot excuse the fact that there are a lot of differentiations when it comes to the numbers of infected and mortality rates. I believe that Covid-19 exists, i.e. a new strain of the Coronavirus, but not to the extend of what we are being told to warrant shutdowns around the world, is there something we are not being told, not a theorist, just wanting to know if the above is possible ?

Popular Post TheDark Posted April 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2020 Go and visit a hospital in heavily infected areas. If you see doctors and nurses in distress covid-19 is probably not a scam. US Army just ordered 100.000 military style body bags to be used for civilian usage. This also says 'It's probably not a scam'. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmjam Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I highly doubt it, given the effect its had on tourism, and the global economy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they tested everyone who has it or has had it in the past few months the number would be running in the tens of millions. Coronavirus is real. It kills people of all ages that are susceptible to it. The fear and paranoia surrounding it are highly exaggerated due to social media, IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catch it, let us know if you get past the ventilator stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said it was awful. Both are in recovery now luckily. I'm not saying the fear isn't real, it is. It's just greatly magnified by the fear factory that is social media.

Rancid Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Some areas seem worse than others, a scam, no. Perhaps though the fear factor has been ramped up out of proportion. Also seems that many of the numbers (eg Italy) can be unwound to show that not nearly every death is corona, and there are still many things that kill us more every year. Reality is that it is being treated as a pandemic, and as such life as we knew it may well change, economies will likely crash worldwide, few seem to think through what those consequences will be, time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgw Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 as far as I know, nothing is 100% bulletproof in the field of medicine. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaoNiaw Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Another problem is that a lot of people are saying only X% of people are going to get it, only Y% are going to die, no different to flu etc. etc. But that completely ignores the level of ICU care that this virus requires. It's overwhelming health resources, even in countries which should be able to cope. Whether that's because of cuts, underfunding whatever isn't the issue when its on top of you. If your country's health system is unable to cope, and there are knock on effects to people with other issues that can't be attended to, then it's the reality and no scam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrTuner Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 No medical test is bullet proof. Even RT-PCR needs a good sample to get a high enough viral load to be able to do the PCR replication. False negatives happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
