CDC Quietly Pulls PCR COVID Tests By Ending Emergency Order at End of Year

The CDC quietly announced last week that it was withdrawing its request to the FDA for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the assay first introduced in February 2020 for detection of SARS-CoV-2.

Here is what the CDC says(LINK):

After December 31, 2021, CDC will withdraw the request to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the assay first introduced in February 2020 for detection of SARS-CoV-2 only. CDC is providing this advance notice for clinical laboratories to have adequate time to select and implement one of the many FDA-authorized alternatives.

Caitlin McFall, writing for Fox News, is the only reporter in all of the mainline media that has reported on this quiet change.

McFall reports: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) urged labs this week to stock clinics with kits that can test for both the coronavirus and the flu as the “influenza season” draws near.

Thruout the duration of the pandemic, the RT-PCR tests have been criticized for producing false positives and not being able to differentiate between the flu or COVID-19  This criticism has been kept conspicuously away from the public eye. The WHO issued concerns about these tests earlier in 2021.

Late Last year, three doctors in Contra Costa County, Ca who were concerned with the excessive COVID PCR testing leading to high numbers of false-positive results gained attention online. Dr. Michael deBoisblanc, Dr. Pete Mazolewski and Dr. Brian Hopkins explained:

“PCR testing has proven to be seriously flawed when used to track disease prevalence, and the number of false-positive tests has contributed to fear, panic and unnecessary quarantine of many. The peer review of the original Corman-Drosten PCR paper points out the serious flaws and conflicts of interest in the original article describing the PCR test (Peter Borger Et al., 11/27/2020). This paper is the basis for the PCR test used in the United States. On January 21, 2021 the World Health Organization published directions on the interpretation of a positive PCR test. They now caution about calling a test “positive” without symptoms, a confirmatory test, and physician oversight. They also cite the serious problems with high cycle thresholds leading to a high number of false positives. In short, they agree with what we argued last month.”

“With this information, your COVID positive case numbers are highly suspect, and using this data to determine which tier the population falls into has been, and continues to be, completely unreliable and arbitrary. Our recommendation is to move forward quickly with rapid antigen testing. These tests are less expensive and more appropriately sensitive to detect people with active, contagious disease.”

Ironically, 6 months after this information was quietly exposed, without any reporting on broadcast TV or cable media, the CDC is ending the PCR tests.

As of today, the PCR tests are still being used, and the majority of the public does not know that these tests are frequently inaccurate and are being phased out.
