Manufacturer Narrative

The calibration was successful on (b)(6) 2020.The investigation found that the customer results were reproducible with both patient samples.A rapid assay from creative diagnostics and an independent in-house roche assay showed reactive results.The low viral load is well in line with a low immune response to the viral antigen used in the assay.Based on the available data, a general reagent issue could be excluded.The investigation did not identify a product problem.The cause of the event could not be determined.
