No kidding! It makes me wonder if he had a false positive to begin with.

I've been seeing a few of our locals complaining that they cannot get cleared to go back to work because they need TWO negative results in a row and they keep getting back a - and then a +; then another - and then another +. They had asked and they were told the test was only about 60% accurate (no idea where they came up with that #, but is what they said CVS had told them). Makes you wonder what tests are like that and what ones might be more accurate. And also how many test + and then never question the test results?

That calls into question all the positives for asymptomatic individuals. 60% accuracy lends to a lot of Type 1 errors!

CDC stated last month that tests are 40% false positive and 40% false negative. Stated tests are worthless.
