"Dr. Mina and other researchers” are now admitting, is basically worthless as far as the purpose for which it is designed—the detection of an infectious virus—is concerned. Up to 90% of those who have tested positive for COVID-19 should not have tested positive."
"PCR tests produce false positive results up to 90% of the time.
According to former Pfizer chief science advisor Dr. Mike Yeadon, PCR tests are junk science."
It's only good as the people taking the sample and the willingness of the person to submit to it. Two people have quit the college football team because they found routine testing too painful. Musk's rapid antigen test is not what they use in the hospital. Accuracy also depends on whether you're already showing symptoms.

That is my take on the Test too...after 3 days and for the last 24 to 48 hrs my temperature has been normal, no aches...I told the Emergency Center about an ongoin ear infection with me and they paid no attention to the fact that the fever could be related to that.
in a couple of days I should be a normal human being, but I will keep the isolation until the 30th when I will get retested again. I believe my positive result was a false alarm.
To be honest, WHO just reviewed their stance on who is sick and who is not. Invermectin suddenly is "considered" by NIH as possible treatment, final stance to be determined.
That said, just as it was expected, as electoral battle came to fruition, and COVID was used as primary weapon in it, give it few months, it will all dissipate on its own.
As it was said in Othello, The moor done his job, the moor may retire.
What makes you think it is the third test that is false? Maybe the first two are accurate? That said, there are lots of things that can yield false negatives and positives.
My friends mother had a temp and cough and wasn’t getting better so decided to go to the hospital. She 77 and had other conditions. Sunday she tested negative, Tuesday’s she tested negative, today she tests positive and is being moved to the Covid ward. So why would she test negative twice and then test positive? My husband got tested because he had a cold and it was negative. If he tested again the next day, could it have been positive? Most people only get one test (if not in the hospital) so what is correct?
Happened to me. Had a negative test when I had symptoms and few days after a contact with a family member who tested positive. Then I tested positive. From what I understand what is correct is if someone has symptoms and tested negative, get tested again. The tests are not 100% either way. I was told you could test negative but be shedding the virus at the same time.

The rapid test isn't really a test but a screen. Get the nose swab.

We're ALL negative, until we're positive.
