CDC Admits its Tests couldn't Distinguish between COVID and Influenza

I've maintained all through this concocted, despotic COVID canard that what we are experiencing is an influenza strain, and extremely likely to have been fabricated in a "science" lab (aka the Sanctuary).  And now the experimental "vaccine" -- or what increasingly appears to be some sort of ghoulish therapeutic juice -- will become just another guilt inducing seasonal shot to provide yet another steady revenue source for Big Pharma and its corrupt symbiosis with the US National government.

(Ya'll can see those totally awesome blog posts of mine here below.)

COVID-19 FLU Hysteria: Let's Keep it in Perspective (March 2020)

Coronaflu (April 2020)

The True Size of a Virus and the Covid Flu (Dec. 2020)

But lo! now the CDC has admitted just that about Covid not being discernibly different than the Flu. A report entitled: 07/21/2021: Lab Alert: Changes to CDC RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 Testing where it shows over the past year the PCR and test kits for COVID couldn't differentiate between influenza and Covid.  Meh....   

And here's the clincher:  On that CDC "07/21/2021: Lab Alert" the CDC links to an FDA doc entitled "SARS-CoV-2 Reference Panel Comparative Data" , and here's the opening "Background":

“During the early months of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, clinical specimens [of the virus] were not readily available to developers of IVDs [in vitro diagnostics] to detect SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, the FDA authorized IVDs based on available data from contrived samples generated from a range of SARS-CoV-2 material sources (for example, gene specific RNA, synthetic RNA, or whole genome viral RNA) for analytical and clinical performance evaluation. While validation using these contrived specimens provided a measure of confidence in test performance at the beginning of the pandemic, it is not feasible to precisely compare the performance of various tests that used contrived specimens because each test validated performance using samples derived from different gene specific, synthetic, or genomic nucleic acid sources.”

In plain english what they're saying is they didn't have the COVID-19 virus so they-all just fabricated, invented, made-up a frankenstein "COVID-19" sample from "contrived samples generated from a range of SARS-CoV-2 material sources (for example, gene specific RNA, synthetic RNA, or whole genome viral RNA)".  

This is the perfect example of the phrase "Good enough for government work!"

But hold on now, but NOW, yes NOW, they tell us they have tests that can! SCIENCE (All Bow!) has prevailed!   Wait now, we were told that SCIENCE (All Bow!) of testing must be done, and that it was was accurate, and all was well and true and right and pure and blessed, because it was SCIENCE (All Bow!) of course, and the SCIENCE god (All Bow!) knows all, and is infallible and beyond questioning.  But, of course, It ain't and It wasn't.  This is horse pucky, and many, many people need to be charged with crimes of death and destruction to humanity, and should be sent back to the Earth to help push up daisies.  It is overwhelming to contemplate how wicked this conspiracy is, and how many lives have been demolished...

"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) urged labs this week to stock clinics with kits that can test for both the coronavirus and the flu as the "influenza season" draws near. 

The CDC said Wednesday it will withdrawal its request for the "Emergency Use Authorization" of real-time diagnostic testing kits, which were used starting in February 2020 to detect signs of the coronavirus, by the end of the year. 

"CDC is providing this advance notice for clinical laboratories to have adequate time to select and implement one of the many FDA-authorized alternatives," the agency said.

The U.S. has reported more than 34.4 million cases of the coronavirus since the pandemic began in 2020 and more than 610,000 deaths. 

But while cases of COVID-19 soared nationwide, hospitalizations and deaths caused by influenza dropped. 

According to data released by the CDC earlier this month, influenza mortality rates were significantly lower throughout 2020 than previous years.

There were 646 deaths relating to the flu among adults reported in 2020, whereas in 2019 the CDC estimated that between 24,000 and 62,000 people died from influenza-related illnesses.

The CDC urged laboratories to "save both time and resources" by introducing kits that can determine and distinguish a positive test for the coronavirus and flu.

"CDC encourages laboratories to consider adoption of a multiplexed method that can facilitate detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza viruses," the agency said Wednesday.

Laboratories will have until the close of 2021 before the CDC officially withdrawals its Emergency Use Authorization of the Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel."
