Regardless of the technical issues with this, I think the "prank" issue Moxie brings up is much more serious. We've already seen the phenomenon of "Zoom bombing", I can imagine "tracer bombing" would be a much more serious issue. The only way I could see this working is that if when you enter a positive result you have to enter some sort of secret key from the testing authority, but that's totally not tenable given a lot (most?) testing these days is from private providers.
