Gov. DeWine said the antigen test he took last Thursday that yielded the false positive "should be looked at as a screening test" and that the PCR test, which he said over 1,300,000 Ohioans have taken, "is very, very, very reliable"

DeWine州長說,他上週四進行的抗原檢測產生了假陽性,“應該將其視為篩查檢測”,他說超過130萬俄亥俄人進行了PCR檢測,“非常,非常,非常可靠”。
