These tests are based on chemical reactions, probably acidity testing, so it stands to reason that compounds other than those found in the sinuses would produce weird false positives.
The tests come with pretty clear instructions about how to avoid contamination. Sure, if you're snorkeling up pears you're probably going to throw it off. Would you expect something different? These are chemical tests that use compounds to mark covid antigens or parts of covid itself so they will be picked up on the chemically treated material. They are based on the narrow chemical characteristics of a healthy sinus that does not contain pears.
Cut it out with the name calling. He has a valid point.
Do YOU understand the chemistry involved with these tests?
I don't, but I have enough sense to understand that testing things the test wasn't designed for just MAY cause the test to malfunction. Why is is so hard to consider that pH or Alkalinity may play a part in how the test works.
That said, the tests aren't designed for "Covid" testing either, so it's all BS.
