The test was developed by explicitly looking for primers that give positive results for known-positive COVID-19 patients but give negative results for other test subjects with common colds or other respiratory illnesses. So assuming they had enough training data, this should already be factored in, and the test should remain accurate. Posting this anyway in case other people are thinking along the same lines...]
