PRC explains reasons behind false positive COVID-19 test results
The Philippine Red Cross (PRC) explained on Tuesday the reasons behind supposed false positive results of COVID-19 specimens in Subic.
During a congressional hearing, House Deputy Speaker Rodante Marcoleta mentioned that 49 health personnel initially tested positive for COVID-19 but after a second test at another lab three days later, 44 of them tested negative.
The PRC stated the samples were collected and tested by their personnel in Subic Bay Freeport Zone.
The Department of Health (DOH) and RITM are investigating these false positive results.
