Is this how the virus was passed around in the White House?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal health officials are alerting doctors to a potential accuracy problem with a rapid test for COVID-19 used at thousands of hospitals, clinics and testing sites across the U.S., including the White House.
The Food and Drug Administration said late Thursday it is investigating preliminary data suggesting Abbott Laboratories’ 15-minute test can miss COVID-19 cases, falsely clearing patients of infection. The test is used daily at the White House to test President Donald Trump and key members of his staff, including the coronavirus task force.
The warning came one day after researchers at New York University reported results suggesting Abbott’s test can miss up to half the infections caught by a rival test made by Cepheid. The research has not been peer-reviewed or published in a medical journal and was based on about 100 patients.
The researchers found that Abbott’s test, run on the company’s portable ID NOW system, missed one-third of the infections caught by Cepheid’s test when swabs were stored in liquid used to transport laboratory samples. When the samples were kept dry the test missed 48% of the cases flagged by Cepheid’s test.
The researchers called the test’s performance “unacceptable,” due to the risk of falsely clearing patients who could spread the infection to others. They acknowledged shortcomings of the study, including the time needed to transport patient samples to the device for processing.
Abbott rejected the findings, saying the researchers used the test “in ways that it was not designed to be used.”
“ID NOW is intended to be used near the patient with a direct swab test method,” the company said in a statement. The company pointed to other independent study results that found the test accurately detected 90% or more infections.
Last month Abbott changed the instructions for its test to explicitly warn against putting patient samples in transport chemicals. The update came after researchers at the Cleveland Clinic reported a 15% false negative rate for samples stored in the chemicals.

Of course that gets Obama (King) [or so he thought they’d let him be the figurehead]
That’s why Judge In DC
ALLOWED the firm that Holder works for in DC to file an Amicus brief that was accepted today. This doesn’t happen in a bubble. They tried to trap Flynn to take down Trump; hide the truth that the Obama presidency spied on Americans consistently for years. They never thought she would lose. The cabals are trying to coordinate their efforts to focus on Trump to fail. He out games their narratives at every turn. He’s a patient person. He’s going on 4 years of winning and still standing. He deserves respect, no POTUS since Reagan has had an interest in the security of Americans. You saw what they did to Reagan. Trump is Trump, no masks. If this plan doesn’t work, the military will secure the nation or attempt to. Some games you win, some you lose, most are draws. One thing is sure, in The End of this movie+ GOD WINS. That’s why a sense of humor is essential.
