"too many false negatives" out of how many true negatives? does everything has to be 100% to be considered as "effective"?

Daughter had slight fever last night, woke with sore throat today. Used the Binax test at 9 am, negative.
Went to doctor at 3 pm (temp spiked a bit and wanted to rule out strep) and she tested positive for COVID.
These at home kits are guidance at best and may have worked better on the pre-omicron variant.
I still will use the home tests for guidance but they are no substitute for a "formal" test.
Stay safe everyone, hearing from so many different of my circles people getting (mildly) sick this last week.
But when there is stock is when you will not need them lol. You need them now, when every 2nd person is catching covid.
anyways cant buy online but it claims like 2/6 of my local wm's have stock.

Apparently these are less accurate on the negative side, more accurate if they read positive. Supposedly if you get a first negative you might want to do a 2nd test. If both show negative you (supposedly) have reasonable accuracy. Whereas if it show positive the first test should be accurate. I assume even this 2 test negative method may not be accurate if you are infected but not having symptoms as per the directions (but your daughter was)
This kinda means you may need 2 tests per use though which sucks.

Yeah, I feel a bit off this AM, but I took 1 test last night and it came back negative; then I took the 2nd and it also came out negative. I took 2 more this morning, just in case, and they also came back negative. I found 1 more box of tests on the car's floor when I pulled into the office parking lot, so I just took 2 more tests - all came out negative. I'm good, right?!"
....a week later:
"Does nobody work at this place anymore; wth?!"
""They all got Covid from some A-hole who came to work despite being infected....""
...on they way back home:
"....but it said I was NEGATIVE 17 times in a row!"
/the end.
