I don’t think you can misuse PCR. [It is] the results; the interpretation of it. If they can find this virus in you at all – and with PCR, if you do it well, you can find almost anything in anybody.”
Many of the commercial labs are running the PCR procedure at 40-45 cycles when the CDC recommends no more than 33 cycles to avoid false positives. A lot of these "positive cases" are due to minuscule pieces of the virus that pose no threat of infection.
Just learned about them from Elon Musk. Crazy!
Space Karen!

And at about 60 iterations you get a 100% positive rate.
