In footage from the meeting in Vienna Friday, FPO General Secretary Michael Schnedlitz brings a glass of cola to the podium, from which he proceeds to collect drops to use on an antigen rapid test being used on a mass scale.

The results of the test are described by independent German news site Reitscchuster.de (translated from German):

After going to the lectern and starting his speech, the politician sprinkled a corona rapid test with a few drops of cola. Three minutes later the test showed a result: It was positive. So Coke triggered such a result.

After demonstrating a positive result, Schnedlitz goes on to slam the tests as a waste of taxpayer resources.

"Mr. President, we are likely to have a problem now, we have a positive corona test in parliament, namely this cola triggered a positive corona test. I don't know how to deal with it now!
