When was the claim made? 22nd September 2020 What virus outbreak does the claim refer to? Coronavirus covid 19. which country does the claim refer to? United states. Do Covid rapid tests show any false positive results? Yes A study found that of 464 people who would test positive for COVID-19. 7 people (2%) would not have COVID-19 (false positive result). Are the rate of false positives in rapid covid tests high or low? Tests only gave false positive results in 2% of those without COVID-19.

Antibody tests one week after first symptoms only detected 30% of people who had COVID-19. Accuracy increased in week 2 with 70% detected, and was highest in week 3 (more than 90% detected). Little evidence was available after week 3. After the claim date was a second wave of Covid infection expected? Yes The idea of a second wave was based on the 1918 flu pandemic, when many cases were seen in the spring,
