Any PCR test that takes more than 30 cycles to become positive shows that the original sample contained minimal amounts of coronavirus RNA. In fact, Sars-Cov-2 may not have existed at all in its complete form in those samples, since the PCR process is not designed to amplify the virus’s entire RNA strand, just a piece of it.

Florida had no problem controlling local outbreaks. It had no surge of hospitalizations. Its late lockdown did not seem to have mattered at all.

A similar phenomenon was already known to occur with influenza vaccines. Older people who received the flu shot were less likely to die after they received it than those who didn’t get the shot. But a landmark 2006 study in the International Journal of Epidemiology found they were also less likely to die before they received it. The flu shot was a

Philip Dormitzer, the chief scientific officer at Pfizer, would call Israel a “laboratory” for the company’s vaccine. He added that Israel had “immunized a very high proportion of the population very early—so it’s been a way that we can almost look ahead: What we see happening in Israel happens again in the US a couple months later.”49

Unverified second- and third-hand horror stories were regularly retweeted tens of thousands of times, especially if they included information about young people becoming ill and dying. Many of those stories would later be proven false, but far fewer people saw the retractions or corrections.

While the nucleotides in RNA and DNA contain the information necessary for life, the amino acids that they tell our bodies to produce are life itself. They form the basic structures of proteins that come together to make up not just viruses but all life on earth, including human beings. All that complexity comes from combinations of just twenty

We will never know exactly how many people the Spanish flu killed. But the best estimates are that about 50 million people died worldwide, almost 3 percent of the global population at the time. The equivalent figure today would be 220 million people.

The gap is even larger for reports of serious side effects or deaths. With about 110 million doses of mRNA vaccines given in the United States, the VAERS system had received more than 1,800 death reports, the CDC reported on March 16. In comparison, it received about 20 reports of deaths out of 180 million flu vaccinations in the last two flu

Since its invention in 1984, PCR testing had become crucial to biotechnology research.
