Thanks for the info, I have bookmarked it. I hope the CDC data is accurate and has not been tampered with as some states have done.

My dad's 80 year old friend went in for a blood test concerning his kidney got a call saying he tested positive for Corona. He called his Primary dr and said it was an error. So much for accuracy. At no time did he have a swab done.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

Re: CDC weekly surveillance report

@Nancy Drew so your point is that no one should be tested because there are some errors? Testing allows a person who is positive to self isolate until several tests show they are no longer a danger to others. I would not want to walk around infecting others. That is why I wear a mask even though I have no symptoms.

Is it possible he tested positive for the antibodies?

@chessylady  Boy did your imagination run wild! That wasn't my point. My point is how many other inaccuracies are there out there?

According to his Primary Dr. No. Clean as a whistle on that front. His right kidney has an issue tho.

Re: CDC weekly surveillance report

@Nancy Drew,  do you know what kind of covid testing was done when the man went in for blood work related to his kidneys?

The eyes through which you see others may be the same as how they see you.
