Will the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine cause a false positive antigen/POC or PCR COVID-19 test?

The mRNA vaccines from moderna and Pfizer should not affect the results of either the nucleic acid or antigen (POC) COVID-19 tests.  Evidently, the antigen used for the antigen POC tests is not the same as that created by the mRNA vaccines.
