I’m most concerned about the new reporting from Boyd, that according to gold standard ELISA retest of positive samples, just under half came back negative, indicating a possible false positive.
Of course, the samples going through freeze thaw cycles may contribute to antibody degradation but seriously concerning.
- Gibbon1 6y agoYou got a link to that? Thanks
- nodamage 6y agoThis seems like a really big deal, so I'm going to second the request for a source on it.
- nodamage 6y agoNevermind, it's mentioned in the original article which I missed the first time around: > The following week, Boyd had results in hand. Using ELISA tests to reassess the samples of community members who had come up positive for antibodies on the Premier test, he had ended up getting positive results for a little over half of them.
