Why oh why do they always refer to “CASES”? The ‘tests’ they are using simply throw up numbers of CASES relative to the number of ‘tests’? EVERYTHING we are subjected to revolves around these “CASE” numbers.
Nobody seems to ask why they constantly refer to the results in numbers of cases coming from their tests. That was until last Friday 18th September. Well worth a watch, if only to listen to the man (Matt) squirm through lack of ability to answer with any clarity or conviction. Bojo must be getting worried about his right-hand man’s ability to spin on one hoof.
Matt Hancock said when being interviewed by Julia Hartley-Brewer just the other day on National Radio (its available online) that the False Positive Rate of Covid tests in the community is "under 1%". Mr Hancock genuinely appears to believe that kind of number, justifies the draconian Diktats he and his fellow Politburo members make up and dish out daily. He (Secretary of State for Health and Social Care for goodness sake) with his gormless grin, actually believes that this “very small proportion testing False Positive is a good result! WRONG!
An FPR of 0.8% when the virus prevalence is so low means that at least 91% of "Covid cases" are FALSE POSITIVES.
I know! How does that work, counter intuitive eh? Well it does once explained. And it is clearly explained! I keep being censored when I try to share the link.
Clearly explained in plain English by Dr Mike Yeadon who is the former CSO and VP, Allergy and Respiratory Research Head with Pfizer Global R&D and co-Founder of Ziarco Pharma Ltd. In a piece entitled “Lies, Damned Lies and Health Statistics – the Deadly Danger of False Positives”
Guess what, 2 of my grandchildren just developed Common colds cos they went back to school! My wife got one from her (a cold that is) so did my daughter who is a teacher. common colds with sneezes and sniffles. All sent home to self isolate. Sneezes are about the only symptom of any kind of ilness not included as possible COVID symptoms, yet sneezing terrifies everyone in most environments, especially schools and workplaces. What chance of getting back to normal? Ever?
And now the Boris is introducing yet more new restrictions and a second COVID shutdown... WTF is happening out there? Please help, I fear I'm in The Cuckoos Nest with no way out. Anyone?
