The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

There are patients now that are being monitored by Arc Bio's technology with a blood test, that sees everything in the body. And instead of pulling out the human DNA from a hair, what we do is we pull out the human DNA and see what's left behind. And those are the pathogens, and we can actually diagnose an infectious disease without even knowing what to look for.
