On ABC’s “Good Morning, America,” January 10, 2022, the director of the CDC, Rochelle Walensky, made this curious statement: “…these [PCR] tests are actually not authorized for the purpose of evaluating contagiousness” (see https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/news/video/cdc-director-responds-criticisms-covid-19-guidance-82131389).
This revelation came a couple weeks after Walensky’s appearance at a White House press briefing, where she stated that “people can remain PCR positive for up to 12 weeks after infection and long after they are transmissible and infectious” (see https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/press-briefings/2021/12/29/press-briefing-by-white-house-covid-19-response-team-and-public-health-officials-76/).
It’s worth repeating, if only for dramatic effect; but, of course, the implication of Walensky’s statement gives the lie to all the fearmongering and propaganda based on the PCR test: “…people can remain PCR positive for up to 12 weeks after infection and long after they are transmissible and infectious.”
[Cue up spooky music. We now enter the dream sequence of this presentation.]
At this point, a real journalist would have stopped Walensky and asked:
“Let’s be clear. You’re telling us that the same PCR tests that have fueled mass hysteria over the past two years—all these positive tests which were cited as justification for closing down ‘nonessential’ businesses and churches, forcing people to wear masks and social distance, cancelling doctor’s appointments and cancer screenings, and pressuring people to get injected with experimental mRNA shots that were rushed to market in a matter of months, when normally it takes several years to assess safety and efficacy—you mean to tell us that these same tests were never even authorized to evaluate contagiousness?”
Having never encountered a real journalist before, Walensky turns pale. She is speechless.
The real journalist continues: “And, to be clear, you knew these tests were producing false positives up to 12 weeks after people were no longer infected?”
A flustered Walensky sifts through some papers, apparently looking for her script.
Last question: “How long do you think you’ll be able to run this scam?”
Here, our little fantasy ends on a happy note, with Walensky spilling the beans in a reckless moment of honesty. Having regained her composure, Walensky leans toward our imaginary hero-journalist, places her hand over the mic, and says through clenched teeth: “As long as there are people who wear masks while driving alone in their cars—not to mention all the people who still believe our jabs work as promised—that’s how long we’ll run this!”
