Christie Wilcox wrote an article regarding false positives. The article was written in I would say a mediocre fashion. The article endeavors to stir up alarm regarding how things that are common to eat can cause false positives for rapid COVID-19 tests. Sure – this can be “alarming” but having a false positive is not that bad for the public. If someone does have a false positive then they may needlessly isolate and stay home. That is the worst case scenario. Sure, it is inconvenient perhaps but a false positive does not have negative consequences for society as much as a false negative. The article does not mention this. It would be far more alarming if someone tests negative and they are actually positive because then this person may not quarantine which has far more severe consequences for society. The article of interest should have discussed this aspect.
