SR, we might still be overlooking something fundamental in all this, for I am not a bit closer to being able to explain the apparent order of magnitude shortage in covid fatalities for the Sturgisers.  Even if we take into account that there is a good chance none of the Sturgis crowd were nursing home patients before they headed out, we still aren’t there.  They were not these guys:

Keith was the one who hipsterized me to how viruses don’t have DNA, they have RNA.  But I had heard that polymerase chain reaction is not a reliable amplifier of RNA, only DNA.  Ja?  If so, it would explain why the people who use the covid tests every day say they are notoriously unreliable: they are using PCR to amplify RNA.  My nurse cousin thinks they have an unacceptably high false positive rate.
