    Could other throat infection cause a false positive?

    No, a throat infection that is not due to Covid-19 infection will not cause a false positive.

    Would the bubbles formed affect the result?

    No. However, the bubbles might hinder the tidal flow of the test kit due to insufficient sample. Hence, we recommend that you wait for 5 minutes before dropping the mixed samples.

    if I am recently vaccinated, will my results show as positive?

    Vaccination does not provide complete immunity against the virus. It reduces the complication risks if infected. However, if you are infected even if you are vaccinated, you will be tested as positive.

    No, you cannot. It needs to be 30 minutes after brushing the teeth or usage of oral products such as mouth wash.
