(Natural News) A European lawsuit the fact that the widely used PCR test for detecting the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) is up to 97 percent unreliable - so basically useless.

Portuguese judges reportedly upheld a lower court ruling that forcibly quarantining four German tourists after one tested -positive- for Covid-19 was unlawful because the PCR test is inherently fraudulent.

Delivered on Nov. 11, the verdict followed an appeal against a writ of habeas corpus filed by four Germans against the Azores Regional Health Authority, which demanded that they quarantine.

-This body had been appealing a ruling from a lower court which had found in favour of the tourists, who claimed that they were illegally confined to a hotel without their consent,- writes Peter Andrews for RT.

-The tourists were ordered to stay in the hotel over the summer after one of them tested positive for coronavirus in a PR test - the other three were labeled close contacts and therefore made to quarantine as well.-

The Lisbon Appeal Court found that the Azores Regional Health Authority had violated both Portuguese and international law by forcing the four German tourists to remain confined in a hotel, as only a doctor can -diagnose- someone with a disease. The tourists were also not assessed individually.

In its 34-page ruling, the Lisbon Appeal Court concluded that:

-In view of current scientific evidence, this test shows itself to be unable to determine beyond reasonable doubt that such positivity corresponds, in fact, to the infection of a person by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.-

In other words, in the eyes of the court, a -positive- Covid-19 test means absolutely nothing, and does not correspond to an actual -case- of Covid-19, whatever a -case- is even supposed to mean
