Coronavirus Pandemic Update 54: COVID-19 Antibody vs. PCR Testing; When to Relax Social Distancing?

COVID-19 Update 54 with critical care specialist Roger Seheult, MD of https://www.medcram.com/?utm_source=Youtube&utm_medium=Video&utm_campaign=Video+Link+Clicks&utm_term=Coronavirus+Pandemic+Update+54%3A+COVID-19+Antibody+vs.+PCR+Testing%3B+When+to+Relax+Social+Distancing%3F&utm_content=kgzFAdYwYLM

Production of COVID-19 antibody test kits are ramping up - there are over 70 companies producing them. Antibody tests could be one of the keys to eventually easing social distancing restrictions and allowing schools and businesses to re-open. Unfortunately, only one antibody test is FDA approved at this time, and the approval of each company will take some time. Dr. Seheult illustrates how antibody tests and PCR-RT tests for COVID-19 work on the cellular level, and he discusses potential coronavirus vaccine challenges.

If they have to go into your nose up to your Sinus holes to find evidence that the Virus is there...why the hell they say : keep 2 Meter distance to other persons? This means you can have the Virus in a small drop of salvina?

I still have no idea if I already had this.


Everyone in my house got something within the same 1-2 week period. Basically like a cold but mostly just a VERY runny nose and some coughing. After this I had mucus/fluid in one lung, and a cough (not dry, more the kind you get to remove mucus). And that has come and gone a few times over the weeks since then to a much milder extent. Hinting at either a reoccurring infection of some kind or some kind of lasting irritation/damage to that lung. It's still occasionally producing some thick mucus. My parents meanwhile are still getting occasional coughing.


But nothing actually matches the symptoms we were told to look out for. It's just that I've never had something quite like this before.


I just wish I knew if I already had it so I knew if I was taking a big risk using public transport, which in the near future I'll have no real option other than to use to get to work.

When doing the RT-PCR tests looking for the virus I heard through other doctors and scientists that it can’t distinguish it from some other things. I can’t remember the names. So it’s possible for false positives also.

Was the virus actually isolated from other RNA substances before creating tests to detect it? I am concerned that the testing may be testing for something other than a novel virus.

Until much more knowledge about SARS-Cov2 (and maybe even when we do) shouldn't we say use the phrase 'resistance to' instead of the more categorical label 'immunity'?

Coronavirus spp. have endemic points, such was in Wuhan. So if it gets purged (herded) doesn't mean that in 10-20 years humanity wont be tested again by a new mutated one :)

I would like to know how vaccines are tested before they get approved for use on a wider range? What do they consist of and do they do the antibody tests on them? We still remember the svineflue vaccine Pandemrix that caused illness in especially kids 2-3 years later. I don't think we will dare vaccinate our kids this time. Seems to be very risky. Would appreciate your honest answer. ❤️

Are you afraid of death? Not sure what I should do? Jesus is the solver. Jesus is the savior. Jesus is the only light in the chaotic world. Satan deceives you. What has Satan given you? It's all about cheating, lying, killing, stealing, and perishing. Come to Jesus. Rest and receive eternal life. In front of Jesus' name, all powers and demons kneel down. I am the way, the truth, and the life. Only comes to the Father except through me. John 14: 6
You who want to believe in Jesus.If you who have COVID19, come to Jesus. Be healed in the name of Jesus, If you plagued by ghosts. If you wanna believe Jesus, Please say this words. "Jesus, I believe in Jesus. Jesus is the Son of God and my savior. you poured water and blood on the cross for my sins.And Jesus were resurrection in three days and I believe Jesus come back when in last world time."

Do you agree with this info that is circulating from an MD about the validity of antibody tests? “The big flaw with these antibody tests is the cross-reaction with other Coronaviruses. This is plainly stated in the package inserts. A positive IgG quicktest DOES NOT MEAN you have IgG antibodies or are immune to Covid-19! It means that you have IgG antibodies to one of the Coronaviruses (maybe or maybe not Covid-19).”

Hi, I have been very depressed and anxious lately because my parents are older than 60. They have not yet understood the gravity of the situation. They're are sad because I don't visit them that often nowadays cuz of the virus and they take it personal. I read a Harvard article that said the only chance we have to fight this virus is that more than 65% of the population gets infected and they're are no likely to survive if they get infected (I'm crying while writing this). And others say this social distancing will last till 2022. I'm seriously very depressed because of my parents. Here in Guatemala we've only 180 cases but the number increases everyday. I hope I can hear better news from you in the future. If you're also feeling depressed because your parents or friends or grandparents are seniors, please reach out to me.
