"with PCR, if you do it well, you can find almost anything in anybody"
"if you can amplify one single molecule up to something that you can really measure which pcr can do, then there's just very few molecules that you don't have at least one single one of them"
The video has interesting things for someone to listen to.
After all, he is the creator of PCR.
Also, the "only 6%" "myth" is not really a myth. It's a fact. CDC did report that only 6% had only covid. The other percent had other underlying disease(s). The part "quietly updated", I can't really tell, could be drama. The thing is, if you only have covid and you die, the cause is covid. If you have covid and underlying disease(s), then what really killed you? I think that's the debate that's troubling everyone, death FROM covid vs. death WITH covid
Finally, your post contains a mix of medical/political/belief matters, which indicates to me that you rush to judge against QAnons than actually interpreting what they say and look their viewpoint. I won't go into debate whether what you stand for is wrong or correct. This is your opinion based on scientific data, and this is my opinion based on scientific data. Medicine is a science where things can never be absolute (actually nothing can be absolute, even in IT where everything is 0,1), things were and will always be debatable and this must be respected. You are free to disagree with my opinion, as I am as well
>For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.9 additional conditions or causes per death. The number of mentions for each condition or cause is shown for all deaths and by age groups.
You can click the link to understand why 6% is not a meaningful number. Again, the most common additional causes are caused by COVID19 itself, and the number of excess deaths far outstrips any 6% wishful thinking.
Death from covid vs death with covid is not a debate bothering anyone serious. Overall deaths are up. Does it just happen to be a freak year for pneumonia, diabetes, and other comorbidities? No. No one thinks there’s a diabetes pandemic and that’s the real cause of all the excess death and there just happens to be a relatively harmless covid pandemic going around at the same time. Be serious. You can act like you’re an intellectual all you want but no one’s going to take you seriously when you make child-like arguments with a straight face.
Since you are attacking me in a quite rude way, rather than just stating your opinion, I understand that my post touched a nerve. I won't even bother to reply to any of your "counter-arguments" since your reply shows that you lack the ability to discuss politely. All I'm gonna tell you is this; Do some research on your own so you can establish your own opinion. Happy weekend and stay healthy my friend
I agree that the tweet contains the person's interpretation, which may or may not be correct as well the viral part, but your claim about PCR..
I disagree: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-eadh8x4Mc

Kary Mullis used PCR to detect viruses himself. https://twitter.com/MackayIM/status/1344846589588770817
I have a thread explaining why the 6% number is horseshit. The most common conditions are conditions caused by COVID-19. https://twitter.com/BadCOVID19Takes/status/1300478066448269317
And if you don't think QAnon has been pretty spectacularly wrong about things, I don't know what to tell you.
What you linked about Kary Mullis has nothing to do with anything Dimitris is saying.
Also, the 6% number is not bunk. This is from the CDC's own website. https://archive.is/ay0JY#selection-3597.154-3597.215

This has nothing to do with 4chan Boomers.

You talk about "excess deaths", yet the monthly death rate only spiked in April before settling back down to it's normal baseline.
Not in America. Every month since then has been a record for that month.
