    While that’s great the video didn’t address the fact that many anti-body tests are being reported as inaccurate. Not sure about these but I would have liked them mentioning that, although that might have come out after the video was made.

      You are correct. However if you listen to the news many reports have come out about the inaccuracy of the anti body tests. It was said at one point in time there were so many circulating that the FDA had all but washed its hands trying to keep up. These tests are paramount for many reasons. We need them ASAP, reliable ones anyway

      Being reported by who and why? Vaccines are made to mimic the body's own defense system. That is what they are modeled on. It makes me wonder why they were not acknowledging naturally acquired immunity in the first place. Now that the powers that be can no longer ignore the question there is suddenly some reports of inaccurate antibody tests. How convenient.

    My husband and I were tested positive for the antibodies. We both had very mild symptoms. Loss of smell and taste lasted for more than 3 weeks. Our kids on the other hand tested negative. So it's very confusing as to why they don't have the antibodies. I thought this virus was very contagious?

      TubersAndPotatoes PCR is not ELISA.

      NP swab is done to sequence viral RNA via PCR to detect active infection via viral load

    I don't know how accurate the mass market antibody tests are. Mine was negative even though I was infected and symptomatic. I wasn't given a titer value, I just got a "no" and I'm assuming it was below a given cutoff value for IgG antibodies. Unless I see titer values, I'm going to assume most of the mass-market tests are bunk.
    Stanford is one thing, but the testing offered by just about any for-profit clinic, especially one in NYC that's absolutely inundated with cases, is questionable at best.

    • @AlinePedrosaa
      @AlinePedrosaa 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      AssadNizam I agree with you, I got really sick, when the shortness of breath started, the doctor on hearing my lungs said: “But you have asthma!" I said: No I don't! There was something wrong, I had all the symptoms and when I went to the hospital they treated me with the Covid-19 protocol (and I still don't feel my lungs 100%). I did my blood test in Citymd and It’s negative. I thought Am I going crazy? I got sick and the doctors saw in the exams that I was not well. But officially I didn’t have Corona 🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @AssadNizam

      Aline Pedrosa ditto. I don’t have asthma, but now I wheeze. I had bilateral rails for a full month, chest pain, a dry cough, fever, general malaise and myalgia etc..
      I’ve had bacterial pneumonia before and this was not that. Bacterial pneumonia is wet, with a hacking cough that leads to ronchi, further up on the bronchial tree.

    "Don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing."
    This sentence is like a veteran carpenter's hand skills
    and a performer who plays both hand instruments, (such as piano and guitar)
    If the head orders-
    You have to divide the use of your right hand and left hand separately.
    It means don't do it in a symmetrical way.
    It means not to mix or skip each use.
    (including all two-handed instruments, farmers, fishermen, soldiers, tailor, hairdressers, boxers, etc.)
    When you work, when you eat, when you breast-feed your baby.
    And the structure of the sentence-
    writing down the thoughts in your head and reading and speaking them are not symmetrical.)
    Imagine you're holding a tool.
    First of all, the right hand-
    Apply force to the tool and use it at the 'right' point.
    But you don't use it for the 'wrong' point. and then you relax.
    And the left hand must point to a place where the use of the right hand is better,
    But if the direction is wrong, you have to fix it.
    The result of using both hands differently to help each other:
    The carpenter's work is intact.
    The guitarist makes a natural sound.
    The right hand should not apply force to 'useless place'
    The left hand should not be directed 'where you don't know'.
    ->The carpenter will make a wrong work,
    The performer will play "dissonance."
    There is no one who doesn't feel dissonance
    The uncomfortable chair is uncomfortable.
    Logical Design of Human Intelligence:
    The power of the right is obtained in the right place, and not in the wrong place.
    The left's wish is to head for a better place, but to be honest.
    It's 'different' and also 'together', so it is-'As one'.
    This 'Pureness' can be seen in your 'body' and 'mind'.
    You prove it yourself.
    Also, when there is dirt in your mind,
    With the "eye" of the truth that we've realized,
    You can see it.
    I also confess.
    I looked at the world based on materialism so,
    Many parts of me were against the truth.
    Now I can see the shape of our minds.
    It naturally makes sense why humans, unlike other animals,
    have been able to achieve the present civilization.
    The "selfishness" of a human being with the tools of knowledge and information
    It's the instinct that no one can deny.
    It is necessary for the life and satisfaction of individuals and families
    But the current society has become informative and anonymous.
    People don't handle inputs with their own hands on online
    People don't have to face the result offline.
    Everyone is making money and excreting their emotions without having to face each other.
    It's full of insensitive antisocial profit-seeking, extreme need for show-off and content addiction.
    The space that harms others who don't even know their faces is growing in everyone's mind.
    But never get me wrong. Never!
    It's not about stopping or not using tools.
    for a long time,
    in two pairs of axles: Right leg-left arm//
    left leg-right arm=X&Ypositioning
    We've been using tools to use both hands separately and together and help each other harmoniously.
    So we can develop the left and right brains respectively,
    We've reached our present intelligence.
    Whether or not our own selfishness has stepped on the line can be felt with our own minds.
    You can manage wisely so that day-to-day developed tools can be used in a beneficial way.
    If someone's selfishness is endless, we can stop it together.
    We can discuss how to become a better society,
    and the public can easily spread the moment when justice collapses.
    I hope you wake up.
    Sooner or later, due to rapid changes in the global environment,
    All kinds of crises can come.
    And for a long time, there are people in the world who follow unnatural intelligence.
    They have a spirit that has become symmetrical with only one axis. (like a bird)
    If you take after them for the survival of a few,
    It must be a retrogression of the intelligence and ethics that mankind has achieved.
    Let's always check the facts on our own to prepare for a crisis.
    Let's not leave our intelligence to any particular person, group, media, religion and scripture, special notions, symbols.
    If there are reasonable suspicions, let's take a look and develop our ability to suspect
    and withhold-judge with diverse knowledge and information.
    Let's look into both 'truth' and 'selfishness' and let the truth control the selfishness.
    It's not about being a strict instrument player and scolding a clumsy player.
    Let's not criticize and hate each other by using fundamental moral principles.
    Let's thank the truth and conscience are breathing in us.
    If people all around the world join together in ethical and intellectual forces,
    we can overcome the crisis and move on to the future.
    Please send this message to the world (regardless of the source)
    I emphasize again.
    See the "Truth" from "Self"! (not others)
    Thank you, everyone.

It is nearly 100 percent accurate and not only tells you if you have antibodies for Covid-19 specifically, but also the number of antibodies you have. It is the best test in the business. NY did a good job of teaming up with OPKO because they will be producing 400k tests a day in less than 2 weeks. Today they announced they can test up to 160k a day for antobodies.
