Incidentally rapid antigen tests(Lateral Flow tests0 may be negative but RTPCR can be positive. It depends on viral load and test sensitivity. So one need not be surprised that RAT was negative one day and next day it was positive or RAT Negative RTPCR positive9I was RAT negative but RTPCR positive)
