My friend felt sick a week ago and took 4 APK test over 4 days.  Negative, positive, negative, positive.

Complete joke!

Those tests  read: 

1) Negative

2) Positive 

3) Positive 

4) Positive 

 

The lighter line on test #3 may have been a ‘poorer quality’ swab, i.e. the sample taken with less ‘viral load’ i.e. after the patient has recently had a drink etc

It does seem nuts that we can ‘breath’ this virus out and someone nearby catches it yet we have to shove a swab into the depths of our sinuses and respiratory tracts just to identify a trace, but really the ATK’s are designed to pick up traces of ‘concentrated virus’ in contaminated phlegm and saliva etc so much of the quality of the ’self test’ depends on how well the swab itself was taken.
