It would seem that every public health official and politician would be eager to see what happened in Wuhan when almost ten million people were carefully tested for coronavirus after their pandemic lockdown.

But I have seen little or no reference to this scientific study which was published on November 20, 2020. Had the whole world focused on this study, all masking, distancing, and lockdowns would have ended on December 31, 2020.

Title of paper: Post-lockdown SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening in nearly ten million residents of Wuhan, China

Location: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19802-w#Sec4

Number of authors/researchers: 19

Number of participants: 9,899,828 (ages 6 and up)

Healthy participants: 9,865,404

Recovered participants: 34,424

Scope: Total city of Wuhan, China

Screening period: May 14 to June 1, 2020

Test used: Nucleic acid screening [RT-PCR test with a Ct (cycle threshold) value of 37-40, which would actually lead to more false positives than not. 24-28 is the maximum threshold for a true test]

Asymptomatic and positive cases: 300

Recovered and positive cases: 107

Virus cultures from positive PCR tests: ALL NEGATIVE (which confirms that the PCR test Ct value was set too high)

Isolation of positive cases: "All asymptomatic positive cases, repositive cases and their close contacts were isolated for at least 2 weeks until the results of nucleic acid testing were negative. None of detected positive cases or their close contacts became symptomatic or newly confirmed with COVID-19 during the isolation period."

CONCLUSION: "The detection rate of asymptomatic positive cases was very low, and there was no evidence of transmission from asymptomatic positive persons to traced close contacts. There were no asymptomatic positive cases in 96.4% of the residential communities."

In plain English (a) a positive PCR test (as generally used) means absolutely nothing, and (b) catching an infection from an asymptomatic person is almost non-existent. Other data shows that (c) catching an infection outdoors is around 0.1%. Which means that outdoor masking is a farce. When almost ten million people have been tested, the confidence level in the study should be very high. Yet none of the public health officials in the Western world presented this information to the general public. Other data also shows that (d) chances of catching an infection from a hard surface is 1:10,000 (CDC data). Almost non-existent.

For those who may wonder if this study was simply Chinese propaganda, there have been several other studies which have confirmed the above conclusions. There were even pictures of people in Wuhan celebrating without masks.

So what this tells us is that the COVID pandemic had a political agenda, which had nothing to do with protecting the health of the general public.
