You're right...the COIVID numbers are a BIG lie...something you like to perpetuate

Apparently you're the one who needs a remedial english class. Go back a re-read it again.
Our ruling
Social media posts claimed the CDC was revoking its emergency use authorization request for its COVID test because it couldn’t differentiate between the COVID virus and flu viruses. While the CDC is withdrawing its EUA request for the 2019-nCoV RT-PCR test, it is not because the test is faulty.

Rather, it’s because the agency is concerned that, with flu season approaching, patients with respiratory illness symptoms should be screened for both the flu and COVID. The patients shouldn’t be tested for COVID alone, because flu cases might be missed.

The statements made in these Facebook posts are not accurate. We rate this claim False. larry google FALSE

They're very narrow and careful here. I know you won't catch it.

They rate it 'false' because that's not the reason for the EUA withdrawal.

They didn't say that the test can differentiate flu from covid.

Because it can't.

It's just that such is not the reason for the withdrawal.

Do you seriously read left wing Facebook fact checks and think you're getting good information?

That's really sad if you do.

Maybe you can enlighten us as to why a PCR test wouldn't differentiate between COVID -19 and Influenza
