What's going on in there? Like, (

Seriously, what is going on over there on that side of the ocean? :confused: The yelling from these two sports teams and their supporters is getting louder, and apparently the one who can yell the loudest is right. :erm: I did not know that was an important yardstick. Rioting, storming Congress, conspiracies like in the first Deus Ex. The only thing that's missing is a nano-augmented german complaining about a vending machine and some russian sailor in Hong Kong speeling his dreenk!

I am hesitant to make conclusions based on single (or even a handful of) findings - especially given that they're apparently mass-testing samples. False positives are a thing.
No, not really.  The idea that the tests have any significant chance of a false positive is a right wing conspiracy theory that is not backed by any science or facts.

Fuck off with your phony born-again leftist schtick, Tony.

Agreed. It's like he thinks if he just keeps it up long enough, we'll fall for it.

Tony's like a little Trump-- he doesn't actually believe anything, he just says whatever he thinks will maintain the drip feed on his narcissistic supply.

Let it sink in that Tony, who supposedly used to be in the military and privy to very important info he couldn't talk about, and then was going to be a big deal in investment banking, with very prominent contacts, whose identity he couldn't disclose; is now choosing to spend his time roleplaying a straw man leftist on one of the internet's less busy gaming forums.
Don't even try to understand why, just use the ignore function and let his responses become empty boxes which space out other people's actual posts (while occasionally popping up as a quote to remind you it was a good decision).

Also faetal, I'd already read/heard that several groups couldn't find any markers of human manipulation of the Covid virus. But at least one said the same as you - that we don't have the tech - but with the caveat that if it WERE manipulated it would be by someone waaaay ahead of the game :p
Your last point touches on some conspiracy nut talking points along the lines of "how do you know they don't have access to BETTER SCIENCE!?", which is of course ridiculous, as though biochemical mechanisms could somehow be kept hidden behind a wall of Bill Gates' money.

Yeah I know. Hence the smily!
