For truth on anything COVID related, conduct web search using prior to Oct. 2019 parameters. Everything since is comped.

 

We are entering the common cold season. Common colds are caused by either a rhinovirus or a coronavirus. Tens of millions of Americans get common colds every year, some of which are coronavirus. Emphasis on the word “common”. COVID 19 was an admittedly nasty version, but there are several less nasty strains of common coronavirus that have been around for a long time, and hit us about this time of year.

 

The sauced report is from 2002, before C-19 hysteria. Note, any recent coronavirus search only turns up C-19 hysteria. Step away from 2020 and coronavirus is a nothing burger that most people experienced throughout their lives without realizing they had a coronavirus. People need to be reminded that coronaviruses are not automatically C-19.

 

Which bring me to my next question. States are reporting a sudden spike in COVID cases (but not deaths). Biden even emphasized it Thursday night. Do the various C-19 testing methodologies simply detect coronavirus generally, or do they only pick up the current strain C-19? If they are broad based, then the spike is simply the fact that we are entering the cold & flu season.

 

“Abstract:

Rhinoviruses and coronaviruses are recognized as the major causes of the common cold syndrome. The role of these viruses in more serious respiratory illnesses resulting in hospitalization is less well defined. During a winter when influenza A infection was prevalent, 100 elderly adults hospitalized because of cardiopulmonary illnesses were evaluated for rhinovirus and coronavirus infection. Patients who tested negative for influenza or respiratory syncytial virus had nasal swab samples tested for rhinovirus, coronavirus OC43, and coronavirus 229E by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and for coronaviruses by serologic testing. Twelve percent of patients had rhinovirus or coronavirus identified (rhinovirus, 4 patients; coronavirus 229E, 4 patients; coronavirus OC43, 3 patients; and mixed rhinovirus/coronavirus 229E infection, 1 patient). All patients had significant underlying diseases. Although all patients recovered, the mean length of stay was 8 days; 4 persons had pneumonia, and 1 required ventilator support. These data suggest that rhinoviruses and coronaviruses may be associated with serious respiratory illnesses in frail older adults. Influenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) have been recognized as important causes of hospitalization in elderly adults during the winter months. However, the role of other respiratory viruses has been less well defined. Rhinoviruses and coronaviruses cause the majority of common cold syndromes.”

Any epidemiology anons out there…or anons with knowledge of C-19 testing accuracy?

 

Are current C-19 tests precise enough to screen out regular coronavirus (aka common colds)? Or do they pick up ANY coronavirus, which inflates the stats allowing the MSM and Fauci to go into hyperventilation mode?
