Thanks for the link. It’s my understanding that it’s still possible for him to have it, but not be positive yet...Is that right from what you know?
From what I have read, it appears it is difficult to be sure negative results until the 21 days has past.
I have not read of any false positives, only false negative from the Virus not yet building up in enough quantity or symptoms.
When Specimens Should Be Collected for Ebola Testing at CDC
Ebola virus is detected in blood only after the onset of symptoms, usually fever. It may take up to 3 days after symptoms appear for the virus to reach detectable levels. Virus is generally detectable by real-time RT-PCR from 3-10 days after symptoms appear.
Specimens ideally should be taken when a symptomatic patient reports to a healthcare facility and is suspected of having an Ebola exposure. However, if the onset of symptoms is <3 days, a later specimen may be needed to completely rule-out Ebola virus, if the first specimen tests negative.
