CDC admits they are full of shit: "Currently all viral diagnostic tests WILL NOT be able to tell you which specific variant you might have. To tell which variant might be present, scientists must perform whole genome sequencing. At this time, WGS is NOT available for individual diagnostic purposes." - Conspiracies

Correct. Unless you do WGS, which is reserved for public health data sampling.

No shit the individual test doesn’t tell you what variant you have. It never has. That’s not the point of it lmfao

Idk man, I’m not the one circle jerking a forum that has been continuously wrong about its theories since the election.

Here’s more info on WGS, if you’d actually care to learn how it works. TLDR: The CDC receives a sample batch of individual test results from states and conducts WGS to extrapolate variance presence because (no shit) it would be impossible to do that for every single COVID test.
