I hope and pray that the tests administered by Clemson are accurate. In the last 6 days, the average daily new cases in adjacent Anderson County is 56 per day and the South Carolina percent positive rate has been between 12-16% per day for the past few weeks.

illness. It's a crime that they are still being used. False positives are all over the place.

Contrary to the practice during previous epidemics, with COVID-19 health authorities have treated a single positive result from a PCR-based test as confirmation of infection, irrespective of signs, symptoms and exposure. This is based on a widespread belief that positive results in these tests are highly reliable. However, evidence from external quality assessments and real-world data indicate enough a high enough false positive rate to make positive results highly unreliable over a broad range of scenarios.
