Covid Questions

In 2020, epidemiological reports falsely listed covid as the cause of death of large numbers of elderly patients. False numbers may or may not be the case, but news and medical agencies did not investigate. If any group did investigate, the reports were not made known. There was ample political and financial motivation to falsify the numbers. No one seems to be investigating these apparent misreports.


The PCR Covid test reportedly has a high false-positive rate. The values would be on the insert sheet for the test. Typically, patients do not receive the insert sheet to know the rates of true positives and false positives and true negatives and false negatives. The point is that false positives make the infection rates appear worse than they are.


Because the public believes reports of false-positive rates, decision-makers cannot tell when the public has reached herd immunity. Although Covid should act like any other virus, the US rates seem too high for our population.


There is an uncommon push not to allow advocacy of early treatment, e.g., anti-viral-replicating drugs. The data seems reasonably supportive of early treatment when started early. 


These facts and observations raise suspicions of political intrusion into medicine, lowering the credibility of medical opinion.
