SARS-CoV-2 Virus Real-Time PCR
The Alaska State Public Health Laboratories in Anchorage and Fairbanks use real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rtRT-PCR) to accurately identify the presence or absence of SARS-CoV-2 viral genetic material (ribonucleic acid, or RNA) in clinical specimens collected from the respiratory tract of patients.
At the Alaska State Public Health Laboratories, our main PCR assay for SARS-CoV-2 has an end point at 37 cycles, and our backup assay to maintain capacity has an end point of 40 cycles.

“He needs to be removed,” said Assembly member Chris Constant.
“He needs to be 86’d,” said Assembly member Pete Petersen, evidently wanting to get rid of the man for good. The Urban Dictionary says that this means he needs to be killed.

Campbell: The path to socialism has started

By CRAIG E. CAMPBELL
You might at first think Caretaker Mayor Austin Quinn-Davidson is showing compassion in her announcement today to provide food vouchers to those in our community who are struggling because of the China virus.
It’s a trap.
People are suffering because of her draconian measures. If she cared one iota about people, Quinn-Davidson would not be shutting down businesses left and right, forcing people into poverty and unemployment, thereby creating a need for this hand-out. AQD’s “compassionate” gesture to offer food vouchers to those she put out of work is sinful.
Sick!
This covid money is a joke, used for evil here in liberal Juneau, Alaska — and may end up in massive inflation before this is all over.
How we voted: Juneau goes for Joe and other takeaways
State went Republican, but Juneau went blue
Saturday, November 14, 2020
Alaska may have gone to the Republicans this election, but according to the latest data from the Division of Elections, Juneau went to the Democrats.
Alaska uses the highly suspect Dominion voting software to count votes, and still hasn’t counted all of the votes 11 days after the election! Voting results have shifted far to the left of what they were after election night.
Joe Miller says Governor Dunleavy won’t allow a recount. And he’s been openly pushing for local officials to implement covid mandates, while he threatened to do so himself in his recent video that he called every cell phone in Alaska to tell us all personally.
Joe Miller on Facebook, 11/12/20 [Look for his intro to this article: Georgia Announces Full Hand-Recount for Presidential Election; DOJ Election-Crime…]
Pretty sad that Alaska, with numerous vote fraud issues in the past – including this year’s legislative races – won’t allow a hand count. Why would our Republican governor prevent that? Is he part of the problem?
This is what it sounds like to skip rocks across a thin layer of ice, just after freeze up in Alaska. And hey, bonus if you get to do it underneath the Northern Lights.
In the now-private Save Anchorage Facebook group, Alaska State Senator Lora Reinbold posted her sister’s comment responding to Dan Fagan’s hit-piece on Lora Reinbold published by Must Read Alaska: Reinbold wonders if Dunleavy should step aside, calls his mandates ‘socialist’
[Must Read Alaska’s Facebook post with comments]
Lora thought her sister’s comment was deleted by Must Read Alaska, but it was being held for moderation. It’s now there, but truncated. So here is the entire comment.
Dear Fellow Alaskans,
I’m Lora Reinbold’s identical twin sister, Lisa. Dan Fagan just attacked her fiercely in an article, even though she has supported his radio show many times. I posted comments to the article but within moments my comments were censored. I must come to her defense since she endlessly defends her beloved Alaskans.
I’m proud the faithful way she fulfills the oath she took to defend our constitution. She knows you miss your freedoms that our leaders have tried to suppress. She is not a snowflake when facing challenges in defending your freedoms like so many others. Senator Reinbold is a true freedom fighter! She doesn’t put on a mask for her fights or fall victim to masqued lies! When a virulent storm brews she won’t tell you to stay home and be safe. In contrast, she will tell you to face it boldly.
My oldest sister, on the other hand, who happens to be in healthcare, has influenced political leaders to mandate mask wearing so everyone looks sick. It helps a few businesses but hurts most others in an incalculable way economically and socially.
In regard to religious freedom, for Dan to infer that the decisions made by our political leaders haven’t impacted churches is not based in reality. Where does he go to church? Is he back living in New Orleans which he also claims to be home?
Thousands of people of faith are suffering immensely!
I tried to reach out and share the perspective I formed after talking to hundreds of Alaskans with the Governor but to no avail.
No one has ever broken my trust in government more than Dunleavy. He falsely declared an emergency when one person was positive for the novel corona virus! We were not in an emergency and that is a fact.
(The 1964 earthquake was a true emergency.) Leading by fear or what “could happen” is not healthy. If he would perhaps stop looking through a microscope and pick up a telescope he would be able to see all Alaskans better. I’ve never seen Alaskans in more distress during the past half century than I have in 2020 under the conjured “mandates”.
Sad 🙁 So Alaska’s governor appears to be a tyrant after all?
Dan Fagan was hoping Dunleavy would use his bully pulpit to stand up to Berkowitz. Now we see he supported Berkowitz’s mask mandates, and says other leaders should impose them, instead of telling the people about vitamin D3, C and zinc, led by Dr. Zink.
On masks, Alaska Gov. Dunleavy tells local leaders to use power they say they don’t have
Music and lights are stunning starting at 4:30!
Watch at 1:12:45 — 3 minutes:
Pro-abortion Al Gross would be a disaster! His campaign is financed by $25M from leftists in the lower-48.
I’ve never been impressed with Dan Sullivan, and notice how much he brings up Lisa Murkowski, who is a disaster, even a traitor to our country by some of what she’s done. But I wouldn’t believe anything Al Gross says. He’d be far worse than Sullivan, would probably vote with the left as much or more than Murkowski.
Gross is being funded by the left so the left can take the Senate.
Now I know for sure that Mayor Berkowitz also swore to defend the U.S. Constitution, which he violated with his tyrannical covid mandates, some of which still stand.
Accompanied by her ‘wife,’ Austin Quinn-Davidson swears to uphold the U.S. and Alaska Constitutions as well as the Anchorage Charter.
Quinn-Davidson was appointed by the Anchorage Assembly after Mayor Ethan Berkowitz stepped down because of scandal.
– –
“She is joined by her wife, Dr. Stephanie Quinn-Davidson.”
Austin Quinn-Davidson, right hand raised: “I solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the state of Alaska and the Charter of the municipality of Anchorage.
“So help me God” at the end was replaced with “congratulations.”
But as soon as they get out of the pool….
State: No need to wear mask while ‘face is underwater’
The State of Alaska Department of Health and Social Services advises school athletic programs that swimmers don’t need to wear masks while swimming, but they should don them once they get to the pool deck.
That is among the recommendations being made for school athletic programs across the state.
Now, the Alaska School Activities Association says it’s a mandate: Wrestlers must wear masks. Runners — indoors and outdoors — must wear masks. Volleyball players must wear them, and swimmers must wear them if their faces are not underwater.
The mandate includes playing basketball, wrestling, cheerleading, hockey and indoor soccer.
