be embarrasing if it was a false positive...
You would have to hope that they re-tested him before calling it. But yes, it's a strange thing that the AMA has called for mass testing of guards and others at high risk of exposure on a daily basis.
The current false positive rate for the standard COVID test is assumed to be 0.5%. So if there are 100 guards and you test them all for two days, you'll get one false positive. They'd have to make damn sure they are re-testing before calling it if their response to one positive test is going to be so extreme
