OH Governor’s Office: In a second test administered today in Columbus, Governor Mike DeWine has tested negative for COVID-19. First Lady Fran DeWine and staff members have also all tested negative for COVID-19.

"The test the White House has been using has a high false rate; there have been staff members who tested positive who tested negative a short time later. And there have been questionable negatives."

Think they still use the Abbott IDNOW platform, which officially is great but hasn't been doing well with independent verification.

Apparantly the first test was antigen, second test PCR. So he's most likely negative because PCR have the higher accuracy. What I don't get is the PCR test was administered in the afternoon but they have the result back already? I thought it took 24 hours minimum to process a PCR test.

WHY would they not use the more accurate test (in the first place) on a governor or anyone at the White House? SMH.
