Photos: Tesla CEO Elon Musk tests positive & negative for #COVID19

Elon Musk has revealed on Twitter, late Thursday evening, that he has tested positive for COVID-19.#
There is actually some misconception about COVID-19 testing. Technically, Musk would have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. 
However, he was tested four times on Thursday, via the same test procedure, same test machine, and same nurse, and yet the results were inconsistent, with two of the tests showing positive, two showing negative:

 
Musk, who took rapid antigen tests on Thursday, said he was also awaiting results from polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests from different labs. When asked by a Twitter user if he showed any symptoms, Musk said he had symptoms of a “typical cold”. “Nothing unusual so far,” Musk added.
