I’m sensing the withered, zombie-like hand of the government grasping corporate media again, this time in Great Britain. Yesterday, the Daily Mail UK ran a story headlined, “Did Flawed PCR Tests Convince Us Covid Was Worse Than It Really Was? Britain’s Entire Response Was Based on Results – but One Scientist Says They Should Have Been Axed a Year Ago.”

Oh.

The news stories these days all seem like parodies. I have to check twice to make sure it isn’t a joke. For example, the Mail’s articlebegins in its first sentence by labeling skepticism over PCR testing a “conspiracy theory:”

“It has been one of the most enduring Covid conspiracy theories: that the ‘gold standard’ PCR tests used to diagnose the virus were picking up people who weren’t actually infected.”

But then, the paper asks: “But could they have been right all along?”

Oh please! We got cancelled off social media for even asking that question.

The Mail describes a recent report by the research charity Collateral Global and academics at Oxford University concluding as many as one third of all positive cases in the UK may not have actually been infectious. That would amount to about six million cases.

The Oxford scientists described the UK’s testing scheme, which cost an eye-popping two billion pounds per month, as ‘chaotic and wasteful’. They go on to ask “Why did we need expensive PCRs? The test results basically became meaningless.”

Basically meaningless. You don’t say. If only someone had realized this sooner.

The report then goes on the describe the utterly and completely uncontroversial concept that overly sensitive levels of PCR cycles over-amplify viral fragments of dead viruses and who knows what else. A rotting lemon could test positive for Covid at pandemic testing levels. What a triumph of ‘science,’ to finally admit what the inventor of PCR testing had been saying since day number one. PCR tests should never be used for diagnostics. Period.

Ah, but I know what you’re thinking. Better late than never. At least they can talk about it now. Well, maybe.

The Mail suggests it was ALWAYS just about the money. According to the paper, a “source close to the Government’s testing strategy” explained: “The reason we continued PCR testing last year is because long-term contracts had already been signed with the labs and the money had changed hands. The Government couldn’t do anything about it.”

Oh, of course. Their hands were tied! Stupid lawyers. And, science? Who cares if the tests work or not. It’s just another government boondoggle, what are you going to do. Nothing to see here.

But of course, the Mail got it all wrong. The government ALWAYS knew that the tests were wildly oversensitive. This article is how they’re going to wind down testing in the UK. By undermining people’s belief in the accuracy of the tests. That’s how you end a pandemic, right there. Nice job by the UK information warfare officers, still waging war on their own people. For safety.

As I’ve said many times, if you don’t test, there’s no pandemic.
