    What proof would I show that the world is round ?

    From that I take it you agree the tests are only 70% accurate?

    you're good at assuming things to suit your argument aren't you? It must be a useful ability.

    Are you saying you would make a claim that the world is round without having proof?

    Copernicus once claimed that the sun orbited the earth. That became a widely accepted view. It was complete nonsense, of course.
    He also claimed that the earth was the central point of the universe. That also became a widely held view. Guess what? It was also untrue.
    It was also widely accepted that the earth was flat, even with the moon staring people in the eye.

    Widely accepted views can be wrong.

    Says he who once worked somewhere where things escalated quickly - resulting in claiming that a consultant was giving us "good news" that the UHW were a week away from being overrun. lol lmao and all the other childish acronyms to accentuate some sort of a point.

    OK, so my assumption was wrong. Which then leads me to ask, why are you getting involved (albeit in a schoolyard fashion) in a conversation on which you have registered no actual opinion? You wouldn't be trolling would you?

    You are doing it again, you are not answering my questions, I asked you 'what proof would I show that the World is round ?'

    You seem to be turning the debate into the subject of proving the earth is round (a subject on which we both agree).

    I'm sticking to where we were. CTRL+H then paste in the links here.

    I've been asking for the links a lot longer than you've been asking what proof you should submit to prove the roundness of the Earth.

    If someone challenges your claim the earth is round, you could provide satellite images of the earth. You could point out what a lunar eclipse is, and how it would look if the world wasn't round. You could also go to a harbour and point out that a boat travelling away sinks out of view rather than disappears. You could even point out how the moon looks in the Southern hemisphere compared to the Northern Hemisphere. If this was over an internet forum, you could post links. Speaking of which.... where are your links?

    Reading about test kits that Spain recently sent back to China that the Spanish reckon only had a 30% success rate, the company making it were claiming it had an 80% success rate and it apparently had received European Union certification (but the Chinese Government had itself not certified it).

    There are a lot of poor tests out there, I have heard of a few 'false negatives' myself locally, it's very concerning, I guess people around the World are working on this, I just hope they can come up with readily accessable reliable accurate tests.
