Musk Tests Both Positive And Negative For COVID-19 |
2020-11-14 |
[DAILYCALLER] On the eve of SpaceX’s second manned launch, CEO Elon Musk says he has tested positive and negative for COVID-19 twice each — all on the same day. Musk’s company SpaceX is expected to launch its second manned craft from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center Saturday, but the head of the company may not be able to participate in the event, the News Agency that Dare Not be Named (AP) reported. Musk tweeted Friday just after midnight that he had been given four rapid tests for COVID-19 on Thursday and two had come back positive while the other two were negative. |

#10 Increases the number of cycles, false positives go up. |

#8 Again I ask, just what are they testing for? They are testing (and lying) to lay a foundation for increasing control over the plebs and other dangerous types. Look at Fauxi telling us to do as we're told and all the hypocrites like Newsom, Cuomo, Witmer, etc. Push is going to have to come to shove very damn soon. |

#7 The cycle times Musk refers to are important. All the PCR testing in the US is using 38-40 cycle times. Anything over 28 times in 100% incapable of detecting live virus. Think of zooming into an image so far that all you see is a couple of pixels. |

#6 Good thing that success rate doesn't pass in rocketry. |

#5 Not a very discriminating test based on Musk's results. |

#4 Results pretty much the same in our family. Almost 1/2 & 1/2 ...No Deaths, No hospitalizations. The family includes front line Medical (LPN's and RN's, Fire-Hazmat-EMT, LEO's, DOD and retirees) OPEN COMMENT FLU Example Given Source: CDC "... seasonal flu activity often begins as early as October and November and can continue to occur as late as May...". C-19 Example Given The C-19 initially started in China in Nov. 2019 and peaked on April 18th, 2020 in the USA. Now in Oct. the CDC, WHO and the media were both telling us it was on the rise again. DEATH FIGURES BY WEEK https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm see table 1. QUESTION: Since the CDC tracks Flu virus by Seasons and this C-19 Virus is showing all the signs of also acting just like a seasonal flu virus. Shouldn't we restart the Infection/Death numbers as on Oct.10th or the 24th, of 2020? |
