there’s this guy claiming that PCR tests for Covid19 are 90% false positive. this just isn’t remotely true
even those rates are too high to be consistent with some populations registering a positivity rate <0.1%

I've read that limiting to 30 cycles would still pick up almost all infections and also eliminate the positive reading for mostly harmless virus fragments.

i believe that’s an incorrect interpretation. the one advantage that might have is that it would not count those for whom their immune system is already beating the virus , and is less likely to be infectious. but it would miss more people who would be esp early in the infection
