The COVID-19 pandemic was met with a high priority on diagnostic testing in managing public health crises. Central to this effort has been the widespread deployment of Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) tests, widely regarded as the gold standard for detecting SARS-CoV-2.
However, the entire testing enterprise is fraught. As the pandemic has progressed, significant concerns have emerged regarding the reliability of these tests, mainly because unacceptably high cycle thresholds (CT values) are employed. These concerns are not just theoretical—they have profound implications for public health, resource allocation, and, critically, the surveillance of wildlife populations.
RT-PCR testing, though powerful, is inherently limited by its sensitivity to even the smallest fragments of viral RNA from off-target nucleotide sources, such as other viruses or bacteria, or the patient’s or animal’s genome. When CT values exceed 35 cycles, the likelihood of detecting clinically irrelevant, off-target viral fragments increases dramatically, leading to false positives. Such results can misinform public health policies, drive unnecessary quarantines, and, as this critique will argue, skew our understanding of the presence of the virus in wildlife. These issues have been addressed in high technical detail from early 2020 (see articles here, here, and here).
Unfortunately, methods like one published by Ceci et al., 2021 are dangerously lax. The implications of misinterpreting RT-PCR results are far-reaching. In human populations, they can lead to inflated infection rates, misdiagnosed cases, and an exaggerated sense of the virus’s spread. In wildlife studies, these false positives can create a misleading narrative that wildlife species are significant reservoirs of SARS-CoV-2, prompting unnecessary and potentially harmful interventions. As I have pointed out, since early 2020, using high CT values without proper validation, such as sequencing to confirm amplicons, has led to an overestimation of viral prevalence, with severe consequences for science and policy.

**Comment**
Weiler’s article dissects flaws in PCR testing in recent studies which are being used to support a narrative that COVID is teeming in wildlife. I wrote previously about the beloved former president of Tanzania, John Magufuli, RIP, and the fact the man had a PhD in Chemistry. A bit of a prankster, he punked the WHO and proved the worthlessness of PCR for diagnosing by testing fruit, goats, sheep, and motor oil for COVID. Nearly half came back positive. He wouldn’t bow to the ‘powers that be’, went missing and died mysteriously.
It’s also important to remember this test can directly access your brain through CSF and at least two children have died due to injuries caused by COVID PCR tests.
Then there’s the fact that the test swabs used for the PCR test contain the carcinogen ethylene oxide, used to produce chemicals like antifreeze but in smaller quantities is used as a pesticide, which causes cancer, and sterilizing agent in medical settings. It damages DNA, but the FDA swears it’s safe.
In the Spanish study, “Nanotechnological Investigations on COVID-9 Vaccines: Detection of Toxic Nanoparticles of Graphene Oxide and Heavy Metals,” researchers found graphene oxide in the PCR swabs, masks, and COVID injection vials.
The experimental physicist and biomaterial researcher Dr Antonietta Gatti examined various PCR test rods under the microscope and analyzed their ingredients. The irritating result: the PCR test swabs are made of hard materials and contain a variety of (nano) particles made of silver, aluminium, titanium, glass fibres etc, many of which are undeclared in the package leaflet. When they enter the mucous membrane, they can cause wounds and inflammation, the scientist said. ENT doctors told 2020News that they are finding more hardened mucous membranes in people who are often tested for SARS-CoV-2. No longer intact mucous membranes can no longer fulfill their task of repelling viruses, bacteria and fungi before they reach the airways, as the pediatrician Eugen Janzen also reports. The germs thus penetrate into the airways without any immune filter.

PCR: Responsible For More Deaths Than Any Test in History
By Dr. Vernon Coleman
8/14/24
The PCR test is responsible for more deaths than any test in history. It was a crucial weapon in misdiagnosing millions of patients. I recently reprinted an article I first wrote three years ago. But there is more to know about the PCR test which I will, in this article, show to be not only worthless but to be responsible for the deaths of millions.
Since the flu of 2019 was selected to be marketed and promoted as a major threat to mankind, and the fake covid pandemic first became a weapon in the manufactured war driving us remorselessly towards Net Zero and the Great Reset, the PCR test has been the weapon of choice for those determined to create fear, to justify pointless and damaging lockdowns, harmful and futile mask wearing and toxic and useless vaccinations.
It was always known that the PCR test didn’t work and wasn’t of any value in detecting the over promoted and oversold version of the annual flu known as covid-19.
Right from the start, the evidence showed that the PCR test was utterly useless in making diagnoses. It was, in fact, worse than useless since it created an epidemic of false positives. No test in history has ever been so misused or used with such malignant intent. And, of course, despite denials there is evidence that the PCR test has killed people. For the evidence please see my article entitled `The PCR Test Can Kill You…’ which was re-published here, on http://www.vernoncoleman.com, just a few days ago.
Everyone who used or promoted the PCR test in the guise of diagnosing covid, or who still uses or promotes the PCR test for that purpose, should be arrested and charged with being part of a conspiracy to deceive, to manipulate and to kill. Anyone who has ever used the PCR test as a diagnostic aid is a criminal and should be regarded as such. (See link for article)
