They can occur for many reasons,but they don,t occur very often,but if they do then they are always confirmed with a western blot test so there is no need to worry if you receive a false positive,Pregnant woman can receive false positives for example.Also the type of test used aswell can produce a false positive from time to time like rapid tests for example.
