for years everyone was told they had to get the flu shot.
because the flu was dangerous and it could even kill you.
now, hardly anyone talks about the flu or having a cold.

What is the reason only 20-30% of people under 25 have been vaccinated?
I haven’t verified this unsourced assertion (or your other unsourced assertions in the same post), but assuming it’s true, probably because it includes the age bracket for children, who are less likely to be impacted by COVID and for whom not all vaccines have been granted approval for use.
Do you think 60-90% of parents…
Huh? That’s not even good arithmetic.

You left-wingers are so far removed from society at large, you spin up concocted stories about conservatives, not even knowing the majority of people you are blaming and which Biden is calling names, is not at all conservative, I’m an atheist, middle-of-the-road socially liberal libertarian, that is basically an Andrew Yang style Democrat (sans the UBI) aka a Democrat or very liberal Republican with a brain.
I do love a good hasty generalisation. 😂 Also, I’m not a left-winger.

Gee thanks. Wait… is that sarcasm? 😒
I’d hate to think you were just reverting to good ol’ ad hominem.

Also, some people related to the current administration happen to be shareholders in some of the patented technologies.
Of course they are 🙄, but that would not be a valid reason to dislike a testing method (ad hominem). I see I was way off with that ‘partisan’ comment. I do appreciate that you provided some helpful info though about the tests. It’s not great that you damage your credibility with your other nonsense.

Due to my position in a local hospital (yes, that's where I work), I always got priority blood tests to back up positive quick tests, they always came back negative even though I've tested positive with the PCR test 3 times now. This is partially what is currently driving a 30-40% refusal rate for the vaccine amongst healthcare workers.
Now it may be that you work in a hospital, but that doesn’t automatically make you an expert on all COVID tests (potential argument from authority fallacy). But getting a false positive COVID test result would not be a valid motivation to refuse a vaccination (though valid motivations do exist).

More like a partisan shill (in a great many of his posts). And he posts a great deal of things on various topics that are misleading or blatantly false. But at least he understands that the CDC didn’t ‘revoke’ the PCR test, which is CDC approved until next year. But he says the CDC is lying about tests that differentiate COVID from the flu. It’s great that there will be better tests available, but I would rather false positive results over lots of false negative results anyway. It would be horrible if lots of people got false negative results, then visit grandma for the last time.

It hasn’t been ‘revoked’. That’s just nonsense wording from the conspiracy nutter site. Better tests are now available that can test for multiple conditions. It’s not that difficult to understand. You don’t need to look for monsters under the bed.

Yeah, total coincidence that the site you linked was already known for conspiracy theories. Not to mention that the testing method hasn't been 'silently revoked' at all, but instead the CDC has given several months notice that the test won't be available as of next year.

Another ‘high quality’ source there 🤦♂️
The text quoted from the CDC says that due to the withdrawal of the RT-PCR testing method (which only detects COVID), different testing methods are to be used, and it is preferred that the alternative chosen be one that detects and differentiates both COVID and flu (as opposed to another testing method that only detects COVID). The CDC did not say the RT-PCR method was withdrawn because it ‘can’t differentiate COVID from the flu’. Rather, it is being withdrawn because they aren’t renewing their FDA exemption for the testing method. Once again, a dishonest conspiracy nutter site misrepresents what a legitimate source said.
