Fact Check: Colds Produce Positive Coronavirus Tests

As the diversity of the coronavirus time design transmission station circulates across the country, social media users say that recent design is sometimes colds that produce positive verification results.

Instagram and Facebo users get a screenshot of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website.

“(Share) let this penetrate … THE COMUN FROID can produce a positive COVID test! Does the number design mean NOTHING at this time?”, Reclassified ads in a June 28 article on Facebook. impose mask and cause collective hysteria of this “wave of moment” for CECI? 99.99997% survival rate! “

A similar article was shared on Instagram from a screenshot of an article titled, “Now even the COMMON FROID is seen as a coVID-1nine positive result,” the CDC says.

Although the articles refer to CDC and the text of the screenshot is real, the facts are misinterpreted.

The information shared online about uncommon colds is about antiframe tests, coronavirus tests.

“A positive verification result controls the antibodies of the virus infection that causes COVID-19,” the CDC says on its website, on a page faithful to infections beyond. “However, there is a possibility that a positive result means that you have infection antibodies with a virulent disease in the similar circle of virus relatives (called coronavirus), as the only one that causes the cold.”

On the website, it is noted that “at a time when viral tests are delayed, antiframe tests are not used to diagnose a current COVID-1nine infection.”

According to the CDC, an antiframe check shows whether an individual has a current COVID-1nine infection as the frame can take between one and 3 weeks to expand the antibodies. To verify a current infection, a viral check is required.

Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins produced through white blood cells to prevent it from entering. Lok tests for immunoglobulin M (IgM) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) in the blood, USA TODAY reported.

Antibodies are measured by a person’s blood tests, the Food and Drug Administration.

Dr. Raed Dweik, president of the Cleveland Clinic Respiratory Institute, told USA TODAY that the antiframe tests he saw don’t seem accurate enough to determine if anyone is immune to COVID-19. In fact, antibodies to coronavirus look very similar to other coronavirus antibodies that cause disease, such as colds.

These checks can mean the presence of antibodies for hot coronavirus, generating a false positive result.

Dweik said it will take longer to expand a control that would rather stumble upon the right antibodies.

Viral checks check breathing samples by rubbing the inside of your nose to trip over SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, the CDC.

According to the FDA, there are two viral diagnostic (molecular (RT-PCR) and antigenic diagnostic test bureaucracies that demonstrate an active coronavirus infection.

“Antiframe tests are not used to diagnose an active coronavirus infection,” says the FDA website. “At this time, researchers have no idea if the presence of antibodies means you’re immune to coronavirus in the future.”

The claim that uncommon colds produce positive COVID-1nine control effects is classified as FALSE as it is never very compatible with our research. Shared messages misunderstand information, conf antiframe checks for viral checks.
