We’ve been hearing a lot about “breakthrough cases” recently. A “breakthrough” case is someone who has been fully vacksinated against COVID and still contracts the disease. No big shocker there. Why is that news? That’s how it’s supposed to work.
By calling them “breakthrough cases”, it implies that this is an unexpected occurrence. Except that’s not true. We’ve known all along that the vackseens won’t stop you from catching COVID. At best, a vackseen will help you be a little less sick than you might have become without it.
So, these “breakthrough cases” are actually “we knew that was going to happen” cases.
Before we can look at what a “breakthrough case” really means, we need to look at what a “case” means. If you’re referring to any other disease than COVID, and I literally mean ANY other disease, a “case” would mean that the person has actually been infected with a disease.
But, with COVID, a “case” means that someone has merely been exposed to the disease.
All these “positive” PCR tests that are being used to justify everything don’t actually tell you if someone is sick. They only tell you if someone might become sick.
PCR tests should not be used as a diagnostic tool. Even Kary Mullis, the guy that invented the PCR test, agrees. When speaking about the PCR test (specifically about AIDS), Mullis said, “It doesn’t tell you that you’re sick and it doesn’t tell you that the thing you ended up with (measured) is going to hurt you.”
The CDC now agrees. Well, sort of.
For unvacksinated people, the CDC still counts a “case” as someone who has been exposed to the virus that causes COVID. But, as of May 1st, the CDC counts as a “breakthrough case” only vacksinated people who have been subsequently hospitalized or have died.
Let me say that again. The CDC is using a different way of measuring “breakthrough cases” than they do regular old cases of COVID. In order to be a “breakthrough case” someone must be vacksinated, and then either get really sick or die. But for anyone who is unvacksinated, to test positive, all they have to do is walk somewhere near a few particles of the virus right before they get swabbed.
That’s like if someone changed the rules mid-game, but then applied the rules to one side and not the other.
But this isn’t a game. It’s real life.
This double-standard is being used to overstate the effectiveness of the vackseens. By exaggerating the unvacksinated cases, and downplaying the vacksinated “breakthrough cases”, the vackseens are made to appear to be much more effective than they really are.
The reason why the number of COVID cases decreased as the number of vacksinations increased isn’t because fewer people are getting exposed. No, it’s because the CDC has, for vacksinated people anyway, stopped focusing on the people being exposed and focused only on the people they know are infected. The more people who are vacksinated, the more people playing by the new rules which results in fewer overall COVID cases being identified.
In reality, if this new way of measuring COVID cases was applied equally across the board, the “COVID crisis” wouldn’t appear nearly as OMG-it’s-the-end-of-the-world as they’re making it out to be. If the new way of thinking was applied to the old case counts, the justification used for the mandates and lockdowns would fall completely apart.
In short, the government is manipulating data to make you believe things that aren’t true. No big shocker there. That’s not news either.
