QUOTE(mochicake @ Sep 27 2021, 07:55 PM) Update - officially false positive, did another same self-test at 6am (1hr after brush teeth, no food or drink) neg and then PCR from yesterday evening came back negative this morning. Thankfully they process super fast. Gonna bin all these tests. Rather go clinic do PCR so no doubt at all. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I did one of these tests today to try out. It uses nasal and palate swab instead of spit so was curious since only tried spit one before (negative). This new one shows as negative. End up their app AI and admin say my test was positive. Problem is it is maybe a little after 15min by time i wash hands etc. so there is a tiny hint of a line on T. If i fish out of trash after 35min it is a darker T but still light.
Had to go get a PCR test at clinic and now wait for results in 1-2 days. I barely go anywhere, a major stickler for masks and sanitizing to the annoyance of my husband so 99% sure it is a false positive. But anyway the point is that I'm not going to do these tests with no symptoms in the future. Waste a few hundred lol
[attachmentid=10990173] Congrats! Yeah, sometimes there are false positive. Better use different brand to check.

But dare not upload or scan their qr code in app. Awful accuracy. QUOTE(adamw @ Sep 29 2021, 10:19 PM) Anyone try upload negative self test to MySejahtera app? That's what i was trying to do. Unfortunately the kit has their own app that you scan qr code, take pic of results and the AI/admin will detect whether it is positive or negative. They say it would auto update mysejahtera. I entered in mysej as negative as no line on T only C, but yet the kit app says i was positive ... so no choice lah go get PCR spend $170 cause PCR will override the (false) self-test results. When you do the 'upload' to mysej it is just a q&a with the helpdesk interface there is no confirmation, upload of pictures or even have to name the kit. Kind of odd.

[attachmentid=10990173] Good SOP, perhaps can consider need to go brush teeth before test considering chemical reaction from the toothpaste

Don't really trust them esp that brand. Heard even orange juice can alter results. Other brand ok since they don't auto report once u scan qr.

Don't want to name it but one can probably guess based on details. I only tried 2 kits of theirs - one false positive (wasted $170 to do PCR afterwards plus the emotional turmoil lol) and one negative the next day. Have tried other company kits that are saliva only, no problem. It's a kit sold to consumers at pharmacies/online.
