Many have started listening to the nurses who actually are the ones spending time with patients. They, moreso than doctors who see a patient for 18 seconds and leave, are people to be listened to.
You guys are so dumb. The CDC didn’t say the PCR test can’t differentiate between flu and COVID. It can identify COVID. It doesn’t identify flu. The gateway pundit, once again, has misled you as to what the CDC actually said.
BTW, one of the big problems we are having with testing right now is that Omicron reproduces 70 times faster than delta. In most cases it is reproducing in the throat rather than the nose. As a result, people can be symptomatic and transmissible with omicron BEFORE they will test positive on a nasal swab based test.
The good news is that you cough 2 times and are completely over Omicron.
Some pundits are saying the omicron variant is great news as it has accelerated the herd immunity thingy without humanity having to pay a high casualty price for it. Unlike the Spanish Flu when it reached its zenith only after several months of its highest death rate.
