    Indirect tests can also indicate that the person was vaccinated. However, they do NOT measure your immunity level. Immunity is impacted by many factors - not just antibodies.

    just an experience note: these paper cut-out style graphics are unpleasant. i'm not really sure why, as i've liked other similar styles.

      Hi! This comment came 3 hours after the publication of the video, hence the low amount of traction. A higher volume of interaction such as likes/comments at this early stage will raise this video's chances of being picked up by UA-cam's algorithms, and help get the word out about how testing works. So thank you for your comments!

    How come the people working in testing centers don’t have to isolate for 14 days after finding a positive case?

      Because they propably wear overpressure Siuts. Overpressure suits are almost permanently attached to a pressured air source, wich if there are any leaks in the suit blow air out of the suit so no bacteria and viruses can get in. They are most common in Viral laboratories. But for the people, who test other people, the government's corrupt system doesnt make any sence any more.

      @@LifeSizeBox If that really is the case you can now see that the whole "pandemic" doesn't make any sense at all... we've never been so lied to before ever. You only have to inform yourself a tiny little bit and you'll see that so much of the sh*t we get told ain't real. Its only about the money... They dont care about people. Example of Switzerland: they have a goal of how many people they want to vaccinate even tho that they have no idea what the vaccinedoes (maybe it makes the whole virus even worse). They just want to sell it to as many people as possible. They don't even think about the possible death of tens of thousands of people. They just dont care. Its just so bad.

      I work in a testing facility. We wear PPE (N95 masks, goggles, gowns, and gloves). We also have very low-risk contacts with patients: we usually have the patient swabs their own nose in their car or behind a screen, then they pass us the sample in a closed container. We take it back to the lab and add reagents that both aid us in the test, but also make the virus unable to replicate ot infect us. After we add these reagents to the sample, we remove our gloves, wash our hands, don new gloves, and then perform the rest of the test to prevent accidental contamination. The riskiest part is when the person takes off their mask to swab, but that doesnt take long and I have PPE to protect me. Once the sample is collected, it doesnt pose too much of a risk because the virus is stuck to the swab. I just have to be diligent with my hand hygiene.
