The corollary being that false positives are falsely reporting a falsely-used falsehood.
I've never seen so many falsies.
My head just exploded!
Thank you.
Much easier to understand.the false positives have been ridiculously high .people are still lining up for them.

Between the Ct issue and the false positives, I wonder how many genuine infections there are?
Dunno if this is a valid way to estimate the number of infections, but I'll have a go.
Inputs:
Calculation of total infections in the year to 2020-10-02:
Infections as a percentage of the UK population, assuming only one infection per person:

These ONS figures are for England and Wales (total population 59,439,840) so we have 29.2%. Otherwise, it doesn't seem unreasonable.
One needs to be careful where these sorts of calculation lead. 86.8% of the population is under 70. So 0.05% of the E&W population under 70 is 25,797. Some people might say that we have 17,115 deaths of under-70s to go if we "let it rip". 😮
