The Dystopian Future of Canada Part III: PCR and False Positives

Published

12 minute read

Canada, like the whole world, has seemingly descended into chaos.

At the core of lockdowns across most our country and measures ranging from military implementation to Alberta’s light touch with growing positive test numbers (identified as cases) seemingly out of control is a potentially faulty test methodology.

Recently, a family member tested positive for Covid 19 and as a result, we had the opportunity to examine the test result from the Calgary lab.  However, it was not until we read past the test result that questions started to surface.

As you can see, the specimen type is identified, nasal swab.

The method of testing is identified as NAT or PCR and ‘was performed using primers and probes targeting the E (envelope protein) gene of the SARS-CoV-2 virus DEVELOPED AT ProvLab.’  ProvLab is the Alberta Government testing lab with multiple sites for sample testing.

I was aware that the blue non-surgical masks people use across the world note on the box that they do not stop viruses or virus based infections, a fact which renders them largely useless for Covid prevention but I was not prepared for the disclaimer printed on the bottom of the test which reads:

“This method was validated at ProvLab.  IT HAS NOT BEEN CLEARED OR APPROVED BY THE US FDA OR HEALTH CANADA AND RESULTS SHOULD BE INTERPRETED IN A CLINICAL CONTEXT.”

If this NAT/PCR test has NOT been approved by Health Canada OR the US FDA, then why is Alberta using it and how can we trust the results?  According to the Health Canada website, “unauthorized tests may not produce accurate results, leading to potential misdiagnosis,” which could have dire consequences.

Checking into Health Canada, two facts can easily be found.  Firstly, there are 102 Covid tests ‘under review’ at present, one of which may be this test executed by ProvLab of Calgary.  The tests fall under three broad categories, Antigen, PCR and Serology with rapid and regular kits available to test for Covid 19, SARS and Influenza.

Potential patients who test positive may not be testing FOR Covid, but rather one of the family of Corona Viruses.  Your mother, father, brother, sister or child could have a regular cold and have the luxury of 2 weeks in lockdown.  There have been circumstances of individuals receiving the influenza vaccine testing positive FOR covid shortly thereafter.

And, a second and third verification from British Columbia and the FDA is below:

 

With a little research by a government friend, I was able to find the following out about the test and results directly from the Health Ministers Office.

“Alberta does not use a commercial test kit for the lab-based reverse transcriptase (RT) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay used for diagnostic testing for the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Alberta’s COVID-19 test was developed and validated at Alberta Precision Laboratories (APL) and the test was further validated by the National Microbiology Lab.

All PCR testing involves amplification cycles. The PCR test used in Alberta has been confirmed to be highly specific for SARS-CoV-2. It does not react to other viruses and it cannot amplify a negative sample into a positive.

Alberta is currently evaluation a rapid antigen test, the Abbott PanBio test, for use in Alberta and this test is being used in a limited number of real-world settings. It is important to note that these rapid POC testing technologies are not as sensitive and are limited in their testing capacity when compared with the existing diagnostic test currently used in the province. Due to their limitations, rapid POC tests cannot replace all existing testing and public health measures, and instead will be used to augment current testing program. The Government of Alberta, in partnership with Alberta Health Services, is committed to monitoring evolving testing evidence and technology to improve our testing approach.”

The National Microbiology Lab is Canada’s Level Four lab which signifies that they are able to safely test and respond to the world’s most dangerous infectious diseases such as the Ebola virus, toxigenic e-coli and also highly pathogenic influenzas.  They were briefly mentioned in a 2019 ouster/defection of Chinese scientists including Xiangguo Qiu who was escorted out of the Winnipeg lab in July for a possible “policy breach.”  Qiuu was invited to go to the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences twice a year for two years, for up to two weeks each time from 2017 to 2019. It has been suggested that this may be the source of the Wuhan Virus (Covid 2019).

Globally, PCR testing is considered to be the ‘gold standard,’ with high accuracy dependant on the sampling methodology.  Yet the CDC has noted that false negatives are more prevalent than false positives.  We must also consider the publicized case of Elon Musk who tested 4 times, 2 negative and 2 positive and the 50 % false results.  Other studies have posited that accuracy may be as low as 10% or as high as 90%, with 20% being more common with 34 cycles for the test.

According to a British Columbia Centre for Disease Control report AND a FDA report, their evidence does not support the ‘gold standard,’ but rather that “The CT scan is not a gold standard for diagnosis of Covid 19 and scan cannot differentiate amongst the many microbiological causes of pneumonia.”  (https://www.fda.gov/media/134922/download)

However, there is one salient point that detection of Covid 19 is dependant upon a purified sample from a patient that is not mixed with monkey or bovine material.  To date, no pure samples are available and upon questioning of 34 jurisdictions (Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Scotland, the United Kingdom, United States (CDC) and others as shared on:

Health Canada has no record of “COVID-19 virus” isolation – Fluoride Free Peel

So, the question can be asked again, if the CDC does not have a pure sample and Health Canada does not have a pure sample, how can tests and vaccinations be produced?  It has been noted widely that it took decades for Polio, the Influenza and other vaccines to be produced, yet we have hundreds of potential miracle cures for Covid 19 in less than a year?  You have to wonder what kind of research and testing has been done?  Is it possible that this really is a manmade virus (that is patented by the CDC) therefore a vaccine can be produced as the model IS known?

One potential answer given for the rapid development of vaccines is the similarity of Covid 19 to SARS and MERS.  Promising research has indicated the presence of an E gene (Protein) that accompanies the virus which seems to accelerate its spread or to act as a retardant and which may be the key to halting its reach.

SARS-CoV-2 E protein is a potential ion channel that can be inhibited by Gliclazide and Memantine – ScienceDirect

 

However, as noted, how long does good testing and development take that does not endanger human lives with potentially fatal unintended consequences?

There is another big story that has not been reported in Western media.  In early November, the Portuguese courts have ruled that the PCR process is not a reliable test for Sars-Cov-2, and therefore any enforced quarantine based on those test results is unlawful and a violation of constitutional rights.

In addition, during their decision they cited a European study that showed that if more than 35 cycles are used in the test that the probability of actually detecting ‘real’  Covid 19 is 3 % and  a 97 % probability for a false positive detection.

Portuguese Court Rules PCR Tests “Unreliable” & Quarantines “Unlawful”

The big question is, if  we believe that a vaccine can help the world in the fight against Covid 19 in so quick a time and that desperate measures are justified in this fight against this unseen (and potentially imaginary) enemy then we are ripe for the Great Reset which has come into public knowledge this year under the guise of medical emergence, a fact which Justin Trudeau himself has made reference to at the UN in September!

If we hearken back to basic science and believe that vaccines cannot stop virus infections but rather good nutrition and healthy immune systems lead to efficient patient recoveries, then the citizens of the world will be able to counter the biological war that is in our borders.

To end off the thread on which this discussion started, on November 27, 2020 my family received a letter from my mothers’ retirement home (Revera) that calm states the following:

November 27, 2020

Dear Resident/Family Member at Aspen Ridge

I am writing to you to confirm that we have had no other residents at Aspen Ridge test

positive for COVID-19. With that being said, we have taken many residents off isolation today

due to a clerical error from AHS that resulted in a false positive reporting.

 

With that teaser, look for part II of Positive Corona Virus Diagnosis Errors…

Judge dismisses Canadian military personnel’s lawsuit against COVID shot mandate

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Anthony Murdoch

Associate Judge Catherine Coughlan rejected a lawsuit from more than 300 past and current members of the Canadian military who lost their jobs or were put on leave for not taking the experimental, dangerous COVID shots.

A Canadian federal judge has thrown out a lawsuit filed on behalf of some 330 past and current members of the nation’s military who lost their jobs or were placed on leave for refusing the experimental COVID shots, because she alleged that their lawsuit lacked “evidence” that the jabs were harmful.

The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members had sought some $1.3 million in damages from the government for having their charter rights violated due to the military’s 2021 COVID mandates, according to their lawsuit.

In a November 13 ruling, Edmonton-based Associate Judge Catherine Coughlan ruled in favor of the Trudeau government, and thus military’s COVID jab mandate, to strike down the case. Coughlan remarked that the plaintiffs’ case lacked “material facts” along with “evidence” and was filled with “vexatious language.”

“The only indications of bad faith are found when the pleadings baldly assert that, among other claims, Canada failed to carry out safety and efficacy testing for the vaccines, and that the Directives were premature and ‘promoted the fraudulent use of the biologics’,” she wrote, overlooking reports of thousands of injuries due to the shots in Canada alone.

As a result of the lawsuit being tossed, all plaintiffs are now on the hook to pay some $5,040 out of pocket in legal costs.

As reported by LifeSiteNews in June, documents obtained by LifeSiteNews show that the number of jab injuries in the CAF rose over 800 percent in 2021, with the most being credited to Moderna’s experimental COVID shot.

The CAF members’ lawsuit was filed in June of 2023 and overall sought some $1 million in damages, along with an extra $350,000 in general damages. The lawsuit also had a condition that there be a declaration made that mandating the COVID shots for military members was a violation of their charter rights.

Under the CAF’s mandate, hundreds of military members were fired, or one could say, purged for not getting the COVID shots. This is in addition to the thousands of public servants fired for not agreeing to take the COVID shots.

The CAF eventually ended its COVID mandate in October 2022, which was months after the federal mandate was lifted, but members are still “strongly encouraged” to take the experimental shot.

The federal government under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that its federal COVID shot workplace mandate would be dropped in June 2022, as would the mandate requiring domestic travelers have the shot to board planes and trains.

In November of 2023, a CAF member who spoke to LifeSiteNews under the condition of anonymity observed that the military considers members who refuse the COVID jab “a piece of garbage.”

In March, LifeSiteNews reported on large personnel losses causing the CAF to consider dropping its remaining requirements altogether.

Although Canada has a Vaccine Injury Support Program (VISP) program, active members of the CAF, as well as veterans, are not eligible for the civilian program. According to Christensen, this leaves many COVID jab-injured CAF members and veterans with no recourse other than Veterans Affairs Canada.

COVID shot mandates, which came from provincial governments with the support of Trudeau’s federal government, split Canadian society. The mRNA shots themselves have been linked to a multitude of negative and often severe side effects, such as heart diseases, stroke, and death, including in children.

The shots also have connections to cell lines derived from aborted babies. As a result, many Catholics and other Christians refused to take them.

The Most Devastating Report So Far

Published on

From the Brownstone Institute

By Jay BhattacharyaJayanta Bhattacharya 

The House report on HHS Covid propaganda is devastating. The Biden administration spent almost $1 billion to push falsehoods about Covid vaccines, boosters, and masks on the American people. If a pharma company had run the campaign, it would have been fined out of existence.

HHS engaged a PR firm, the Fors Marsh Group (FMG), for the propaganda campaign. The main goal was to increase Covid vax uptake. The strategy: 1. Exaggerate Covid mortality risk 2. Downplay the fact that there was no good evidence that the Covid vax stops transmission.

The propaganda campaign extended beyond vax uptake and included exaggerating mask efficacy and pushing for social distancing and school closures.

Ultimately, since the messaging did not match reality, the campaign collapsed public trust in public health.

The PR firm (FMG) drew most of its faulty science from the CDC’s “guidance,” which ignored the FDA’s findings on the vaccine’s limitations, as well as scientific findings from other countries that contradicted CDC groupthink.

The report details the CDC’s mask flip-flopping through the years. It’s especially infuriating to recall the CDC’s weird, anti-scientific, anti-human focus on masking toddlers with cloth masks into 2022.

President Biden’s Covid advisor Ashish K. Jha waited until Dec. 2022 (right after leaving government service) to tell the country that “[t]here is no study in the world that shows that masks work that well.” What took him so long?

In 2021, former CDC director, Rochelle Walensky rewrote CDC guidance on social distancing at the behest of the national teachers’ union, guaranteeing that schools would remain closed to in-person learning for many months.

During this period, the PR firm FMG put out ads telling parents that schools would close unless kids masked up, stayed away from friends, and got Covid-vaccinated.

In March 2021, even as the CDC told the American people that the vaxxed did not need to mask, the PR firm ran ads saying that masks were still needed, even for the vaxxed. “It’s not time to ease up” we were told, in the absence of evidence any of that did any good.

In 2021, to support the Biden/Harris administration’s push for vax mandates, the PR firm pushed the false idea that the vax stopped Covid transmission. When people started getting “breakthrough” infections, public trust in public health collapsed.

Later, when the FDA approved the vax for 12 to 15-year-old kids, the PR firm told parents that schools could open in fall 2021 only if they got their kids vaccinated. These ads never mentioned side effects like myocarditis due to the vax.

HHS has scrubbed the propaganda ads from this era from its web pages. It’s easy to see why. They are embarrassing. They tell kids, in effect, that they should treat other kids like biohazards unless they are vaccinated.

When the Delta variant arrived, the PR firm doubled down on fear-mongering, masking, and social distancing.

In September 2021, CDC director Walensky overruled the agency’s external experts to recommend the booster to all adults rather than just the elderly. The director’s action was “highly unusual” and went beyond the FDA’s approval of the booster for only the elderly.

The PR campaign and the CDC persistently overestimated the mortality risk of Covid infection in kids to scare parents into vaccinating their children with the Covid vax.

In Aug. 2021, the military imposed its Covid vax mandate, leading to 8,300 servicemen being discharged. Since 2023, the DOD has been trying to get the discharged servicemen to reenlist. What harm has been done to American national security by the vax mandate?

The Biden/Harris administration imposed the OSHA, CMS, and military vax mandates, even though the CDC knew that the Delta variant evaded vaccine immunity. The PR campaign studiously avoided informing Americans about waning vaccine efficacy in the face of variants.

The propaganda campaign hired celebrities and influencers to “persuade” children to get the Covid vax.

I think if a celebrity is paid to advertise a faulty product, that celebrity should be partially liable if the product harms some people.

In the absence of evidence, the propaganda campaign ran ads telling parents that the vaccine would prevent their kids from getting Long Covid.

With the collapse in public trust in the CDC, parents have begun to question all CDC advice. Predictably, the HHS propaganda campaign has led to a decline in the uptake of routine childhood vaccines.

The report makes several recommendations, including formally defining the CDC’s core mission to focus on disease prevention, forcing HHS propaganda to abide by the FDA’s product labeling rules, and revamping the process of evaluating vaccine safety.

Probably the most important recommendation: HHS should never again adopt a policy of silencing dissenting scientists in an attempt to create an illusion of consensus in favor of CDC groupthink.

You can find a copy of the full House report here. The HHS must take its findings seriously if there is any hope for public health to regain public.
