Event Description
[quickvue at-home otc covid-19 test] use for covid-19 under emergency use authorization (eua): failure to meet performance specifications (including labeling claims) or failure to perform as intended - medical devices. Test purchased recently with expiration date of june 2023. The patient is my wife. I am emeritus professor of medicine at (b)(6) college of medicine. We had a recent possible exposure to someone with symptomatic covid; tested negative with binax test at 24 hours. My wife was asymptomatic. Re-tested with quickvue as above 5 days later. Result: positive. I, 72 years old, asymptomatic, also tested neg with binax at 24 hrs, on retest at 5 days, quickvue, same box, tested positive. That same day i repeated rat (rapid antigen test) with binax, it was neg. We both had pcr nasal swabs 5 hrs later. Both pcr tests negative. Hence the quickvue test for both of us was a false positive.
