Does a positive coronavirus test from the pharmacy mean I'm infected again?
Three weeks ago I was sick with covid. Now, after these three weeks, I felt bad again and bought a test in the pharmacy that came out positive. Is it possible that I got infected again or could the home test have come out positive due to a previous covid infection?

Usually, a positive antigen test lasts up to about 14 days, sometimes longer. Perhaps this is still related to the infection that started in you 3 weeks ago. It is worth in a few days to do a home test from the pharmacy again, then you should already receive a negative result.

To @Magda: This cannot be ruled out. However, it is more likely that you are simply still infected and the previous infection, despite the disappearance of symptoms, still persists. A PCR laboratory test could be decisive in this matter.
Such a test as in the photo. So I have covid again? After such a short time?

It depends on what kind of test it was. A positive antigen test may mean that you are again infected with the virus. More here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/testy-na-koronawirusa-sars-cov-2
