The seasonal flu wave is caused by several influenza and beta-corona viruses. This year, Corona-19 joined in. In 🇨🇭 the flu wave ends, due to herd immunity, in April. With the hypersensitive RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 only the end of Corona-19's season had been detected.

In 🇨🇭 the next flu season, Corona-20 included, will start in November. The hypersensitive RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 detects Corona-20 that "whooshed over mucous membranes rapidly" ( @c_drosten) already in October.

The hypersensitive RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 is not bad as a screening tool, but Ct >35 is nonsense.

However, especially at low prevalence a positive test must be followed by a more specific confirmatory assay.

The main problem is the wrong... https://twitter.com/Thomas_Binder/status/1246229289084780544

...indication, first of all that testing for a (single) respiratory virus is done outside of surveillance systems or need for specific therapy, but even so the lack of consideration of Ct, symptoms and clinical findings when interpreting its result. https://twitter.com/Thomas_Binder/status/1302145409859702784

"The pathogen is nothing, the environment is everything!"
(Claude Bernard 1813-1878)

Viruses are always present in the air & on our mucous membranes. A hypersensitive RT-PCR test/Ct >35 detects ">1" virus. Whether we fall ill or not is rather a matter of milieu than virus.

The neither validated nor standardised hypersensitive RT-PCR test / Ct 35-45 for SARS-CoV-2 is abused to mislabel (also) other diseases, especially influenza, as COVID-19. https://twitter.com/Thomas_Binder/status/1317912078443831304

Corona swindle is done.

I studied medicine, received my doctorate in immunology & virology, specialised in internal medicine/ cardiology, have 32y of experience in diagnostics/ therapy of ARI & am reminded of 2009 by the appearance of a "new virus". https://twitter.com/Thomas_Binder/status/1316209379541233665

Almost everybody fell for the myth of a pandemic of a new corona killer virus. We have to apologise only if, once enlightened, we do not correct the course towards doom.

It is the responsibility of us doctors to follow our oath & inform the public. https://twitter.com/Thomas_Binder/status/1316207251280015361
