| FDA Announces Recall of Tens of Unapproved COVID Test Kits |
| 2023-02-14 |
| [Epoch Times] A recall was issued for more than 56,000 COVID-19 rapid tests last week because they were not distributed with the proper clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), according to an announcement posted on its website. Some 56,000 Skippack Medical Lab SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test Kits are being recalled by its maker, Universal Meditech Inc., because the "products were distributed without appropriate premarket clearance or approval which potentially could result in inaccurate test results due to lack of performance evaluation by the FDA," according to an FDA notice, dated Feb. 10. People who have the Skippack Medical Lab SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Tests should stop using the device and contact the distributor for a return, according to the notice. The recalled products were made between October 2021 and December 2021 and were distributed in January 2022. The horse departed a year ago, but the FDA is now closing the barn door. |

| #5 Had friends stay with me the night before they left on a cruise. They sent phone pix of their negative tests to get cleared to embark 12 hours later. Science! |

| #4 I liked the report about how school kids learned to fake a positive so they could stay home. Pretty sure that happened with adults and work as well. Isn't tough at all. My family was all sick with the same bug for like a week and a half, living noses to elbows. One tested 'positive' with a home kit. That makes no sense either way. |

| #3 This doesn’t say that the tests are no good, just that they didn’t get the proper stamp of approval before going out the door. |

| #1 Many already suspect the test kits of PRODUCING HIGH false positives. So the FDA just splash gas on the thought. |
