In fact, the PCR test can't tell the difference between the common cold and covid. Follow the money. The PCR test can't tell the difference between Covid and the seasonal flu either.

Western Intellectualism and Western SlaveryWestern intellectualism and Western slavery were together in the bed throughout the Age of Imperialism. Most European writers of this period have defended slavery and colonization in their writings because they benefitted from such enterprises. Edward Gibbon could devote his life to working on his history of the Roman Empire, published in six volumes between 1776 and 1788, because his grandfather (also called Edward Gibbon) had amassed a great fortune as the director of the South Sea Company, whose chief occupation was to supply African slaves to the Americas.
