@atruehero@mstdn.social most tests (except one afaik) use multiple markers with each having high specificality near 100%, counting as positive only if both markers are positive.

the usual number of deaths has gone down due to masks and distancing being effective against airborne viral infections, not only covid.

occupations where masks are used aren't filled with brain damaged individuals: like microelectronics plants, research labs and hospitals.

ymmv.
