“The Australian Government cannot provide primer sequence information for commercially available test kits as this is commercial in confidence and may be different for each test kit.
In addition, the Australian Government does not hold primer sequence information for test kits that have been developed ‘in-house’ by different laboratories.
Depending on a laboratories individual established workflow, existing platforms, and epidemiological context, target genes include the N gene, E gene, S gene, RdRp gene and Orf-1ab gene.”
– Quote from my Questions on Notice to the Department of Health.
So an entire country was locked down using a diagnostic test that the public isn’t even allowed to see or analyse!
It’s worth nothing the RdRp gene is common to nearly all coronavirus by the way.
The fact that this information is being hidden from the public is just more evidence that the government overreached.
