> 10 million people tested in Wuhan with only 300 asymptomatic cases and no new symptomatic cases found rather undermines the PCR false positive argument doesn't it!...
I'm absolutely no expert on the issue of PCR, but it possibly doesn't undermine the argument.
In an environment devoid of COVID, you'd naturally expect zero returns as a result of PCR testing. But in an environment (i.e city, building, etc.) where it exists, the point being made (I believe) is that PCR can return positive results (in effect reporting latent traces of COVID) even though 'infection' doesn't exist.
Obviously, this draws in to question what 'infection' actually means. A single viral strand sat in the mucus of your nose, but that is maybe not viable, technically would constitute infection. And the argument is that this may also return a positive PCR test. But that this infection may not be the same as having sufficient intact covid in your system, or in sufficient quantities, to result in illness (asymptomatic or symptomatic) and/or transmission.
