POST-PANDEMIC Study Shows Testing VASTLY Over-Detected Infection Rates

How different would the last five years have been if Covid didn’t shut down the world and train the modern world to live in a state of panic?

A lot of people, we are told, died of COVID. While some of us would love to seen some SERIOUS deep-dive fact-checking on the data, it is true that a lot of high-risk people really did die from COVID.

What we were not told, is that the numbers ‘experts’ relied on to drive public panic were as reliable as they led us to believe. From early on, the complaint was that the industry-standard PCR tests were over-sensitive, and were prone to false positives.

And we all remember what happened to anyone, that made even the mildest criticism about Little Lord Fauci and his Edicts from On High… those super-reputable recommendations like masking, social distancing, and of course, the jab itself of which he said “When people are vaccinated, they can feel safe that they are not going to get infected.”

Also, there was no lab leak, no gain of function research, and do not even THINK about talking about the upsides of natural immunity. He stopped short of saying ‘listen up, plebe, wear your double mask and get your double-jab and be happy we let you out of your home at all’, but just barely.

Now that the Pandemic panic is behind us, and the profit-taking has mostly run its course, the ACTUAL science from which we wanted answers is finally catching up with us.

A German study looked at their practices, which very very similar to ours, and checked the work on just how accurate the PCR tests that interfered with our lives everywhere from work sites to airports. That cotton swab rubbing what sometimes felt like the back our our skull and a chemical test that would tell us if we could go in to work or if we had to hide in our homes for whatever the decided quarantine time was supposed to be.

The journal in which this study was published is Frontiers in Epidemiology. And it backs up some of the critics who had reasonable questions about those little tests that changed the world.

Here is the Conclusion portion of the public-facing abstract, with a few lines of interest :

The principal finding from our analysis of ALM data on both nucleic acid amplification (PCR from mucosal swabs) and IgG antibody (serological) testing for SARS-CoV-2 in Germany between mid-March 2020 and summer 2021 is this: only 14%—and possibly even fewer, down to 10%—of individuals identified as SARS-CoV-2-positive via PCR testing were actually infected, as evidenced by detectable IgG antibodies.

Our conclusion is twofold. First, the IgG testing conducted by ALM laboratories was commissioned by the RKI, itself subordinate to the BMG. Nonetheless, data acquisition evidently ceased after cw21(2021) or, at the very least, public reporting of the data on the ALM website (23) stopped. The IgG results observed and published by ALM have not been acknowledged or communicated by the RKI to date, despite the fact that transparency in reporting such data should be mandatory, both scientifically and in terms of public accountability. Second, the proportion of the German population with a detectable immune response to SARS-CoV-2 was already substantial by the end of 2020. Approximately one-quarter of the population carried IgG antibodies at that point, following a trajectory determined almost exclusively by natural infections. By the end of 2021, practically the whole German population could be considered IgG positive.

Evidently, from March 2020 onward, a national German serological antibody cohort study was conducted—initiated and overseen by the RKI and BMG—though it was never publicly communicated as such, nor has it been adequately analyzed to this day. In consequence, German authorities had timely and reliable access to data tracking the course of IgG seropositivity—data that were, in fact, close to being population-representative. These data could have served as an objective metric for monitoring the proclaimed “epidemic situation of national significance” (“Epidemische Lage Nationaler Tragweite”).

Instead, this evidence-based and representative serological signal was disregarded in favor of relying on the weekly absolute number of positive PCR tests—the so-called “7-day incidence” (“Sieben-Tage-Inzidenz”). Unequivocally, this definition of incidence yields a scientifically meaningless figure in the context of infection dynamics, as it depends entirely on the arbitrary (or imposed) number of PCR tests performed. It is therefore not an objective indicator of epidemiological reality, but an administratively imposed figure—more reflective of political will than scientific rigor. Yet, incomprehensibly, this 7-day incidence metric was even incorporated into the German Infection Protection Act (“Infektionsschutzgesetz”) as the quantitative foundation for imposing highly restrictive public health measures. The methodological shortcomings and institutional processes that enabled its elevation to policy status demand critical re-evaluation—not only to prevent similar errors in the future, but to restore trust in evidence-based public health governance.

Public ‘servants’ served up a plate of panic for the public. And many of us failed the test in letting that panic define us. The pandemic might be past-tense. But the lessons it taught us about not letting big government define every aspect of our life — especially our faith — are timeless.

In fact, it was in a pique of defiance that Doug used the time of his own illness to begin writing this triumphant little tome about those very lessons:

Dear Christian: Your Fear Is Full of Crap

by Doug Giles

Beginning in March 2020, many Christians went into lockdown-freak-out mode. Uncut, irrational, unbiblical, and not to mention, unconstitutional, fear gripped many churches and church leaders. Forced to choose between obeying the Word of God or the edict of man, most Western Churches buckled. We even saw it here in First Amendment-protected America.

The Apostle Peter buckled to fear on the night of Christ’s crucifixion. But he learned his lesson and lived the rest of his life bold as a lion. How can the church ‘go and do likewise’?
