Breaking—Dr Conley now claims Trump is not infectious. He cites CDC criteria, yet CDC clearly says severe #COVID19 cases are infectious for 20 days. And his viral load might be down, but he also has synthetic antibodies. Synthetic doesn’t equal immunity. Ct value also unreported. https://twitter.com/jdiamond1/status/1315093470940282880

2) Notice that Conley never says PCR test is negative. He just says higher Ct value is correlated with lower viral load. But he never said zero viral load. And again, it could just be suppressed by the synthetic monoclonal antibody and Remdesivir, not true immunity.

3) also studies show that dexamethasone (a corticosteroid) extends the period of infectiousness of #SARSCoV2 #COVID19 beyond even 20 days!!!

4) to be clear, PCR positive doesn’t equal infectious — could be virus fragments. But that doesn’t currently square with the CDC and other evidence on infectious extending 10-20 days among severe cases, which Trump is for sure.
