Faint positive LFT one hour later

[Dauphinois]

DS3 (10) did an LFT tonight before bed and then headed upstairs. By the time we'd got everyone to bed, it was an hour by the time I checked the LFT and saw a faint positive.

The leaflet says to disregard the result after 30 mins so we'll test again in the morning but I wondered if this had happened to anyone else. Has anyone known a false positive after an hour?

Did another LFT this morning, different brand to the ones that showed up positive: result was negative. The rest of the household also negative.

I really don't think he has COVID but I was surprised by Public Health's reaction too. I work in a school office and talk to them a lot and they are normally super cautious, but not this time.

We are waiting for a PCR test to come back. DD had a very faint line the other night but it was a definite line. She had a PCR yesterday morning and she wanted to try another LFT in the afternoon. It had a line but I had to really look at it under the light to see it, I don't think I'd have noticed it under normal circumstances but I was really looking for it. I wish they'd hurry up with the results, I just want to know now. We're at around 30 hours since the test.

Keep us posted @Glitterblue
