FDA recalls unauthorized at-home coronavirus rapid test over false results concerns
Fox News
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned consumers to stop using an unauthorized COVID-19 at-home rapid test and antibody test over concerns that the kits may produce false results.
The antigen test is conducted using a nasal swab, while the antibody test relies on serum, plasma or blood samples. The FDA said it has "serious concerns about the performance" of both tests. Health care providers who used the antigen test within the last two weeks and suspect an inaccurate result are advised to retest patients using a different kit. Those who used the antibody test recently and suspect a false result are also instructed to retest patients using a different kit.More Related News
