pH levels cause this to break the test. There are inherent flaws in pcr PROCESS (not a test) and these rapid testing kits, but cola giving a positive is not really all that damning. You can ruin most actual tests by adding cola to them and get positives for random stuff.
I understand that nobody is being put on oxygen if they’re asymptomatic, but the number of asymptomatic cases is not what’s being reported everywhere. My understanding is that PCR amplifies viral RNA with a lower cycle count indicating a higher concentration. My understanding is also that there is a point at which PCR test results with binary values (true|false) can cause a hyperbolic response in individuals and organizations. My family members who have been tested have not been told how many cycles their sample went through but my understanding is that 30 - 40 is the standard for these tests. Hence, over-cycling is a concern for me.

It’s the over cycling of tests that is the most damning. Allows organization to make a wave of positive tests appear and disappear at Will.
Yo, dude, this is an antigen rapid test. PCR tests are reported with CTs (cycle thresholds). Doctors diagnose and treat patients, not lab results.
