As lockdowns continue or are renewed across the U.S. and around the world, the so-called “gold standard” for counting COVID-19 numbers — which dictate how strictly government officials enforce lockdowns and other restrictions — have been exposed as faulty and undependable.
The COVID tests use a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) process to detect infection with the virus. The problem with this test, however, is that labs only give a positive or negative result, while the amount of virus in a positive result could be so small it’s barely there. This is because the screening technique used goes through several cycles to find the virus, and the more cycles that are used, the less efficient the test is.
In other words, if a lab decides to use large numbers of cycles, the chances of a positive test increase. In plainer language, the test doesn’t distinguish between someone who may have had the virus with no symptoms and is now nearly free of the virus and someone with an active, full-blown case of virus that is shedding.
Yet, despite this fault in the test, governments are using it to make sweeping decisions on lockdowns, restrictions and mask wearing.
