    I am so proud of the accomplishments of my son, David, who was recently named supervisor of the Molecular Microbiology Department. He can be seen at the 4:50 mark in the video, standing and wearing a blue checked shirt. I am very impressed with the expertise of everyone at the Cleveland Clinic. WTG, Dave.

    It is so amazing, how this video at less than a year that we even have heard of covid, to already have automated machines that test for covid. I mean 8 months for a vaccine and advanced testing so fast. It’s almost unbelievable

      You realise this isn’t the only disease that is tested this way?
      Also the vaccine has been studied and worked on for years, SARS-Cov 2 (COVID-19) is not the only coronavirus.
      There has been an aim to make a vaccine for SARS for a very long time, but the results, studies and information that had been gathered for over a decade was focused towards COVID-19 as it is causing a global pandemic, along with new information, studies and tests due to how genetically and structurally similar they are.

      @@uz41r78 look into what pcr testing really is and who invented it .. it shouldn't be used for diagnostic purposes.. the cycle rate is how many times they amplify what they are looking for, if you amplify it high enough they will find anything in anyone.

      @@catarinavilar4 Why you do simply assume it’s a “myth”? And without consulting a doctor for confirmation? The virus stays in you for 3 months after initial infection. That is why you can be tested positive and show no symptoms. The virus will take time to discharge from the respiratory system and may not be active. But it is there.

      @@tomboyraider1015 it's quite simple actually: viral load. When your viral load is high enough, the body shows symptoms. When the viral load is low, you can't transmit anything to anyone and the body doesn't show symptoms. There's no such thing as asymptomatic transmission. When people went to the doctor thinking they were sick but showed no symptoms, they were called "hypochondriac". Now, it's everybody. I mean, hellooooo, people, please, have some common sense and basic logic and stop panicking. If you don't have symptoms, you're fine! It's a good thing, be happy 😊 I see people scared all the time and it's just so mind blowing, I wish everybody stopped panicking. Stop thinking that you can kill you're grandmother, like they tell you in the media. Those are all scare tactics, for christ sake. Oh and also!!! There's was a large study from Wuhan, with around 3000 people, that proved there is no asymptomatic transmission. Let me see if I can find it, so that you can see for yourself. I hope it helps, because I really want people to stop being afraid 😊 of you're sick, you quarantine, you can get tested to see wether it's c0vid19 or the flue or wtv, but if you're not sick, you can go live and enjoy your life. Just like we always did! There mass hysteria with c0vid19 is just insane. Oh and if you check biology books, virology books, etc, you'll never find such thing as asymptomatic transmission. I hope I was able to help you 😊
