New research suggests asymptomatic COVID-19 spread is comparatively rare
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/...gn=social_icons
Asymptomatic cases are "least likely to infect their close contacts," study finds.

New research out of China suggests that the level of asymptomatic spread of COVID-19 may be less of a threat than is currently widely believed, findings that could influence mitigation measures such as social distancing rules and mask mandates.

Much of the rationale for the coronavirus lockdown policies and countermeasures undertaken by governments across the world over the past several months has been based on the assumption that the virus spreads easily among people showing no symptoms. Scientists have feared that many individuals may transmit the disease via saliva droplets without feeling ill or showing any outward signs of infection, rendering containment of the virus much more difficult.

Medical authorities across the world have since late last year been scrambling to determine just how prevalent asymptomatic spread of the virus truly is. Research into that question is as still sparse but ongoing.

Asymptomatic cases "not the major drivers" -- excerpt, rest at link above --

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Very, very rare since its impossible.

Much as I'd like to believe this, the source is a yellow flag, "New research out of China ...". In December and January China bleeped over the world.

Hypothetically, there would be some finite time between when the first virus (or several) enter a person's system and when the person is infectious. A super sensitive test would probably come up positive before the person was infectious. But the infection in at least some would progress to the point where the person is infectious.

Similarly, a person who had never had significant symptoms whose system had defeated the disease would for a time test positive, due to DNA scraps from dead viruses still being in the person's system. The "re-infection" false alarm in South Korea was due to this. This person would not be infectious and probably never would be.

The BIG question is whether some or all asymptomatic persons ever are infectious, and I'm not sure that question is answered.

@Magwitch, and I think @austingirl can answer this better than I can, but I believe that if you have contracted one of the other common covids you may test positive, regardless of whether you have even had or even been exposed to Covid 19.

@Magwitch

One of the most fraudulent aspects of this scamdemic is that they are not testing for the VIRUS, which has not been isolated, to make a gold standard test. They are merely testing for a snippet of mRNA they state, without proof, is from the virus. The issue for me is, our cells make mRNA (messengerRNA) that is excreted by the cell and carries protein coding throughout the body to make our bodies function. Because the "experts," who have been wrong about everything, are in charge, they have a long way to go to convince me that what they are testing for is not in fact a substance found in our bodies. That is why the mRNA1273 vaccine is so dangerous.

The covid is a retrovirus and contains only RNA. In order to test, the lab manipulates the sample with reverse transcriptase to create DNA (red flag-many chances for error) which the lab then amplifies an excessive number of cycles to yield a positive test.

The Texas DSHS did not answer my question about the number of cycles they use on the sample or if there is a statewide standard for this.

The test is rigged and who knows what will cause a positive result.

@Sanguine The antibody test is the one that can be positive if you've ever had a corona virus, like the common cold.

The deception by the "experts" is astounding.

The covid is a retrovirus .....

No it isn't. Retroviruses separate from corona viruses (and many others) at the "Kingdom" level in virus taxonomy:

Retroviruses:

Realm: Riboviria
Kingdom: Pararnavirae
Phylum: Artverviricota
Class: Revtraviricetes
Order: Ortervirales
Family: Retroviridae

Coronaviridae:

Realm: Riboviria
Kingdom: Orthornavirae
Phylum: Pisuviricota
Class: Pisoniviricetes
Order: Nidovirales
Suborder: Cornidovirineae
Family: Coronaviridae

Corona viruses are in the same "Kingdom" as measles, influenza, Mumps, Rubella. Corona viruses are not.

Ignoring China, a team from Sunnybrook, the University of Toronto, and University in Canada isolated Sars-CoV-2, https://www.independent.co.uk/news/scien...s-a9399226.html . Per this article originally published March 11th, https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/6/20-0516_article , (see the note at the bottom), the US CDC isolated the virus, probably in February (based on the time necessary to compile, write, edit, and publish a formal article). Researchers in South Korea isolated the virus in early February, https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32149036/ . Researchers in Italy isolated the virus, https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1...onavirus-update . Researchers in India have isolated the virus, https://www.livemint.com/news/india/covi...4102221498.html .

The wuhan is an RNA virus which uses reverse transcriptase to make DNA, which is the definition of a retrovirus. I know you don't believe it, but it is so. https://www.healthline.com/health/what-is-a-retrovirus

You need to set straight the taxonomy of all those virologists who placed corona viruses and retroviruses in different kingdoms.

The two kingdoms have a significant difference in how they reproduce. Orthornavirae encode an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase in their reproduction process. Pararnavirae instead encode an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase in their reproduction process. Within Orthornavirae are viruses that cause influenza, measles, rubella, and mumps, all of which have had vaccines for decades; corona viruses are in kingdom Orthornavirae. Retroviruses are in kingdom Pararnavirae.

You also ignored the fact that, contrary to your claim, at least five countries outside of China have isolated the corona virus that causes Covid-19. Which is inconsistent with your claim that Moderna's and other vaccines could be targeting human DNA rather than the Covid-19 corona virus' DNA.
