Good lord man, read what I wrote again.

If he is infected, it means that the sympthoms will eventually show up.When they show up, people will know that he lied.So there is no use to lie now, if it would be obvious if he had the disease in a few weeks.

There is no advantage to lie.No political advantage, no personal advantage(especially since you can die), etc.

Good lord man, read what I wrote again.

You do know what asymptomatic means, right?

The test is meant to detect that sort of thing.If he took it and it said no, then that's it.If he took it and decided to lie, then we fall not what I explained three times by this point.

If the test can't detect when the virus is dormant, then he didn't lie in the first place.

Why are you trying to pick this fight with me?I really don't get it.
