(NaturalHealth365<\/a>)\u00a0 One of the major stipulations of the White House\u2019s federal COVID mandate \u2013 a sweeping and unconstitutional demand that the president formally claimed he never would impose on Americans, and one with which he insists businesses comply even though a federal court recently blocked the mandate until further notice \u2013 is that employees who don\u2019t get the COVID shot must undergo weekly testing.<\/p>\nBut while many say routine testing is a reasonable accommodation for people who decline the mRNA injection,\u00a0others are raising concern<\/a> over the safety of these tests.<\/p>\n In late October, a Cyprus-based union group named\u00a0Isotita (Equality) called for the suspension of a COVID rapid test after it was found that both\u00a0PCR and rapid test nasal swabs contained trace amounts of a \u201ctoxic and hazardous\u201d substance<\/strong>called\u00a0ethylene oxide.<\/p>\n Ethylene oxide is a liquefied gas used in the medical industry for decades as a sterilizing agent, especially on heat or moisture intolerant supplies.\u00a0 Ethylene oxide has been banned by the European Union in food production \u2013 although it does allow in some foreign products containing the compound \u2013 while other countries use it to combat bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.<\/p>\n In fact, this past summer, the European Commission issued a statement reiterating that law\u00a0(General Food Law COM 178\/2002) stipulates that\u00a0ethylene oxide has \u201cno safe level of exposure for consumers,\u201d and that \u201cany level consumers may be exposed to, presents a potential risk.\u201d<\/p>\n According to EU Regulation No 215\/868, the maximum residue level of ethylene oxide is 0.05 mg\/kg\u2014but the Cyprus union claims that the rapid swab tests are contaminated with 0.36 mg\/kg of ethylene oxide, more than seven times the maximum amount permitted by the EU.<\/p>\n Do NOT ignore the health dangers linked to toxic indoor air<\/strong>.\u00a0 These chemicals – the ‘off-gassing’ of paints, mattresses, carpets and other home\/office building materials – increase your risk of nasal congestion, fatigue, poor sleep, skin issues plus many other health issues.<\/p>\n Get the BEST indoor air purification system<\/strong> – at the LOWEST price, exclusively for NaturalHealth365 readers.\u00a0 I, personally use this system in my home AND office.\u00a0 Click HERE to order now<\/b><\/a> – before the sale ends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n On its Safety Data Sheet \u2013 which you can find with a quick Google search or on the Occupational Health and Safety Administration\u2019s website \u2013 ethylene oxide is classified as a \u201ctoxic and hazardous substance\u201d that has been linked to a wide range of health problems<\/strong> in both animals and humans, including:<\/p>\n Beyond the concerns of repeatedly exposing someone to ethylene oxide \u2013 and who knows how long these mandatory COVID tests will remain in effect \u2013 many of these COVID tests are rife with other problems.<\/p>\n For example:<\/p>\n On October 5, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a Class I recall of more than 2 million COVID-19 home tests \u2013 manufactured between February 24 to August 11 and distributed from April 13 to August 26 \u2013 from a company named Ellume, due to the tests\u2019 alarming rates of false-positive test results.<\/p>\n A false positive<\/a> means that a test suggests a person is infected with the virus that causes COVID-19\u00a0even though they do not actually have it.<\/p>\n The FDA defines a Class I recall as \u201ca situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.\u201d<\/p>\n We remember, of course, that COVID tests are being used to determine who can continue working, who can access public and private spaces, who can travel, when and whether lockdowns can be issued, and more.\u00a0 To think that an unknown number of individuals are suffering the consequences of false positives only adds to the damaging effects of this pandemic.<\/p>\n Sources for this article include:<\/p>\n Newstarget.com<\/a>COVID rapid tests contain a cancer-causing chemical<\/h2>\n
