Feint vs faint

I'm seeing so many people use the word feint when they mean faint. Mainly in relation to covid tests. Where has this come from? It seems so strange when feint is surely a far less common word - so I'm not sure why people would think that's the right one to use. Anyone else noticed it?

I see it a lot in relation to pregnancy tests on here, I also used to see it a lot on fertility friends years ago.
