I read much higher than that -- 89% to 94%. Any 35 cycles of amplification and over is useless. 30 cycles is a 'gray' area'. The CDC guideline was for labs to run them at 40 to 45%.
>LifeSite reported, "While a PCR test can have up to 60 cycles of amplification, both Dr. Pascal Sacré and the International Consortium of Scientists in Life Sciences (ICSLS) pointed out that PCR test data from a cycle value of 35 or more is 'completely unreliable. Only non-infectious (dead) viruses are detected with [cycle] values of 35,' the group adds, as even above 30 cycles there is 'a gray area,' where a positive result cannot be trusted." Yet for all of 2020, the cycle threshold for COVID-19 testing was set at 40 to 45 cycles, assuring a majority of false positives. The "experts" at the WHO, CDC, etc. have known this for a long time, yet these august organizations allowed this high threshold testing to continue, virtually without a word.
