No wonder the early test kits were showing so many people testing positive for coronavirus. The kits themselves were spreading the disease!
As the new coronavirus took root across America, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sent states tainted test kits in early February that were themselves seeded with the virus, federal officials have confirmed.
The contamination made the tests uninterpretable, and—because testing is crucial for containment efforts—it lost the country invaluable time to get ahead of the advancing pandemic.
The CDC had been vague about what went wrong with the tests, initially only saying that “a problem in the manufacturing of one of the reagents” had led to the failure. Subsequent reporting suggested that the problem was with a negative control—that is, a part of the test meant to be free of any trace of the coronavirus as a critical reference for confirming that the test was working properly overall.
Now, according to investigation results reported by The New York Times, federal officials confirm that sloppy laboratory practices at two of three CDC labs involved in the tests’ creation led to contamination of the tests and their uninterpretable results.
I recall some years ago a big pharmaceutical company got caught lacing vaccines with disease. Considering all the attempts to inflate the statistics, I seriously doubt that this was an accident or just “sloppy laboratory practices at two of three CDC labs.” They don’t do sloppy work. Everything they do is deliberate and produces the results that they intend. Someone needs to investigate and get to the bottom of this. They need to find out who had an interest in spreading coronavirus and why and then hold those people accountable for every corona death in America.
