Court Rules that Covid PCR Tests Are Not Reliable
"In the eyes of this court, then, a positive test does not correspond to a Covid case."
This article highlights an incredibly important finding by a Portuguese court that I have not seen or heard anything about in the mainstream American media. I understand some may dismiss RT out of concern that the organization is biased, but I'm unaware of any media outlet that is not biased in some way. For anyone concerned about the quality of this source, there is much good research here and many links that provide additional evidence. Here are a few excerpts:
"In the eyes of this court, then, a positive test does not correspond to a Covid case. The two most important reasons for this, said the judges, are that 'the test’s reliability depends on the number of cycles used’ and that 'the test’s reliability depends on the viral load present.’ In other words, there are simply too many unknowns surrounding PCR testing. . . .
The Portuguese judges cited a study conducted by 'some of the leading European and world specialists,' which was published by Oxford Academic at the end of September. It showed that if someone tested positive for Covid at a cycle threshold of 35 or higher, the chances of that person actually being infected is less than three percent, and that 'the probability of . . . receiving a false positive is 97% or higher.'
