Schoolchildren have discovered that applying orange juice to a Covid lateral flow test can generate a fake “positive” result.

The phenomenon – which has been verified through an experiment by the Guardian – is not a result of the juice containing the virus. Rather it appears to be linked to its acidity, which essentially breaks the test. The effect has allegedly also been seen with a number of other foods and drinks including ketchup and Coca-Cola.

One UK science teacher said they were shown the orange juice effect by their students. “They say it’s a great way to get two weeks off school,” they said.

I’m one of those people that if I get soul-tired I will not go to work. I’m the master of excuses, my imagination knows no bounds!
