Yes, The PCR test can be false positive.
what you can do is, ask the laboratory to do both IgG and IgM antibodies. Sometimes IgG antibodies take more time to form. Repeat both IgG and IgM levels again. if both are negative, then we may say the PCR was false positive, or the sample was contaminated.
