Antibody Tests for COVID-19 Wrong Up To Half the Time, CDC Says

Antibody tests for Covid-19 wrong up to half the time, CDC says

(CNN) Antibody tests used to determine if people have been infected in the past with Covid-19 might be wrong up to half the time, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in new guidance posted on its website.

Antibody tests, often called serologic tests, look for evidence of an immune response to infection. “Antibodies in some persons can be detected within the first week of illness onset,” the CDC says.

They are not accurate enough to use to make important policy decisions, the CDC said.

“Serologic test results should not be used to make decisions about grouping persons residing in or being admitted to congregate settings, such as schools, dormitories, or correctional facilities,” the CDC says.

This should ring a bell with Lyme/MSIDS patients.
Remember testing for tick-borne illness?  Well, COVID-19 testing is just as bad, yet is being used to set policy. Contact Governor Evers and our representatives and senators and let them know you don’t want to be confined to your home based on a faulty test that is wrong half the time.

https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/coppe-healthcare-solutions-merger-creates-capacity-for-1-5-million-covid-19-tests-per-month-

PRESS RELEASE PR Newswire

May. 26, 2020, 11:45 PM

WAUKESHA, Wis., May 26, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/

Coppe Healthcare Solutions (Coppe Laboratories), a CLIA Certified Laboratory based in Waukesha, Wisconsin, has acquired Open CoVIDx, the laboratory division of the Open Medicine Institute based in San Francisco Bay area of California.

The CEO of Coppe Laboratories is Dr. Konstance Knox, the Virologist who previously co-founded what is now Viracor-Eurofins in the year 2000. Dr. Knox has expanded Coppe’s testing footprint to serve 1,000 Doctor’s Offices in the United States, and internationally with a Coppe run Laboratory at the new 5,000 bed Hamptons Hospital, under development at Mwale Medical and Technology City (MMTC) in Kenya.

Open CoVIDx is a division of the Open Medicine Institute, founded by the current CEO, Dr. Andy Kogelnik. It has a 104,000 square foot facility in the biotech incubator at a former pharmaceutical campus in Mountain View, CA.

The merger will become Coppe-Open CoVIDx Laboratories, and will combine the laboratory capacities of the two for a total of 1.5 million COVID-19 diagnostic tests per month, by end of June 2020. The increased capacity will put Coppe among the top 5 COVID-19 testing Laboratories in the United States.

The merger will allow Coppe Laboratories to provide employers in the USA and Kenya with COVID-19 diagnostic testing for employees, environmental testing of work places, and antibody testing within the FDA approved guidelines.

Coppe labs here in WI is the only lab besides the CDC that tests for Powassan virus.  They also test for many other tick-borne diseases and do research.

Normally I would say this merger is a good thing, as I know the folks at both places and highly respect them; however, antibody and PCR testing for COVID-19 is abysmal. No decisions or policies should be made utilizing this testing.  The fact they are poised to pump out thousands of tests for COVID-19 reveals two things: 1) they are definitely switching from being a lab that predominantly focuses on tick-borne illness to one that tests for COVID, when we NEED a focus on tick-borne illness in the state of Wisconsin  2) Until testing becomes better, results are worthless but can and will be used against you.  

For more:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/18/coronavirus-covid-19-antibody-tests-do-you-really-want-one-think-hard-about-it-maybe-not/  People have tested postive one day, negative the next, back to positive again.  I personally know an asymptomatic patient in the hospital who keeps testing positive so they won’t let him leave.

This worthless testing is also being used by the CDC as they go door to door:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/21/how-could-the-cdc-make-that-mistake/

The CDC is also blending different types of testing making them uninterpretable according to one expert:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/21/how-could-the-cdc-make-that-mistake/

Health Passport Scandal UK

  Approx. 9 Min.

Health Passport Scandal UK

The health passport being introduced, is the mass surveillance of every man, woman and child in real time. http://www.v-healthpassport.co.uk https://www.digitalmarketplace.servic…
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/coronavirus-test-and-trace-system-boris-johnson-uk-launch-a9535306.html  (News Video in Link) Boris Johnson Announces the Test & Trace System will launch today in the UK.
Excerpt:

People will be asked to isolate for 14 days if they come into contact with someone infected with coronavirus – even if they do not have symptoms, Boris Johnson has announced.

The new NHS test and trace programme will launch on Thursday across England, involving an army of 25,000 contact tracers and an additional 25,000 people working to process tests.

Tracers will hunt down anyone who has been within two metres of an infected person for more than 15 minutes without protective equipment.

Meanwhile, here in the U.S., the Centers for Destroyed Credibility (CDC) is going door to door collecting peoples’ DNA.  Does anyone see a problem here?  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/26/cdc-goes-door-to-door-for-covid-19-testing/
Excerpt:
Patent #WO2020060606, which is described as a “Cryptocurrency System Using Body Activity Data,” senses body activity of the user.
“Human body activity associated with a task provided to a user(1) may be used in a mining process of a cryptocurrency system. A server may provide a task to a device of a user which is communicatively coupled to the server(2). A sensor communicatively coupled to or comprised in the device(3) of the user may sense body activity of the user. Body activity data may be generated based on the sensed body activity of the user. The cryptocurrency system communicatively coupled to the device of the user may verify if the body activity data satisfies one or more conditions set by the cryptocurrency system(4), and award cryptocurrency to the user whose body activity data is verified.”(5)  https://operation-nation.com/bill-gates-microsoft-file-patent-for-dystopian-body-activity-data-implants/
The patent states that “conditions set by the cryptocurrency system” can be awarded cryptocurrency to the user.  In other words, if you are a good boy or girl you get points.  What happens if you aren’t a good boy or girl?
Apple already has an app for all of this:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/18/coronavirus-covid-19-antibody-tests-do-you-really-want-one-think-hard-about-it-maybe-not/  It doesn’t matter if it’s the antibody test or the PCR.  They are both worthless and shouldn’t be used for diagnosis, let alone for quarantining people.  

https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/20/cdc-crimes-possible-sherman-provisions-clayton-acts-violated/  Put an end to CDC/NIH corruption.

Right here in Wisconsin, Governor Evers is pushing ‘contact tracing’ as part of the Badger Bounce-Back Program:  http://www.great98.net/2020/05/05/5-5-20-governor-evers-releases-more-information-on-contact-tracing/  DHS is coordinating the amount of tracers with the number of projected tests and positive cases with the goal of having 1,000 statewide tracers.

iOS 13.5 Update: Apple Makes the iPhone Face Mask & Contract Tracing App-Ready

iOS 13.5 update: Apple makes the iPhone face mask and contract tracing app-ready

Posted by https://www.globalworldtrends.com/author/office/

The new iOS 13.5 update for the iPhone has just launched and it’s ready to end all of your troubles with using Apple’s Face ID when wearing a face mask, and it seeds a way for your local public health agencies to develop contact tracing apps. (See link for article)

___________________

Important excerpt:  

This framework will allow governments and public health agencies to develop apps that alert you if you’ve come into contact with someone who later tests positive for Covid-19 and that person anonymously logs their positive result into a database.

We are told the actual contact tracing apps aren’t here yet but 22 countries across five continents have requested and received access to the API.

They also say that everything is being done to protect user privacy.

“It’s ready to end all of your troubles”…..  Ha, ha, ha... that’s about the funniest thing I’ve heard all week.

Besides the invasion of privacy, testing has been proven to be worthless for COVID-19 and shouldn’t be used for diagnosis let alone for quarantining people:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/18/coronavirus-covid-19-antibody-tests-do-you-really-want-one-think-hard-about-it-maybe-not/

Meanwhile, the Center For Damaged Credibility (CDC) is going door to door collecting peoples’ DNA:  https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/05/26/cdc-goes-door-to-door-for-covid-19-testing/

Cloth Masks – Useless Against COVID-19

Cloth Masks Are Useless Against COVID-19

 Approx. 13 Min.
Lisa Brosseau, ScD, is a nationally recognized expert on infectious diseases. Brousseau taught for many years at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She may be retired from the university, but she’s not retired from teaching. She recently cowrote an opinion piecethat drew a lot of notice: In it Brousseau argues that cloth masks offer no protection from COVID-19. As one might imagine, it drew a lot of attention and caused a fair amount of controversy. She recently sat down with Infection Control Today®to talk about her strong feelings about cloth masks and that data she used to reach her conclusions. (See link for article)

I’m so thankful more and more qualified infectious disease experts are speaking out on the madness of face-mask wearing.
Brousseau recommends social distancing, while others have stated should only be done by the elderly and infirm:

Excerpt:

Cahill is looking at legal action against the Irish government for making policy that is harming people.  She states that there should be a public debate which includes not only those making policy but scientists who thinks like she does to hold authorities accountable.  We should do the same.

Most importantly she states we should make sure that this NEVER happens again.  I concur.  Get a copy of “Virus Mania,” and you will see that there has been a historical trend which rose to a fever-pitch draconian policy with COVID-19, but it’s been done many times before. Our grandmas were right: A virus just runs its course.
