Event or Problem Description
Hello.I have experienced a false positive covid test result when using the flowflex covid-19 antigen home test white box version (not the recalled one blue box version).The lot # for the tests i used was cov2020181 | exp 2023-06-24.I do not have symptoms but was worried about possible exposure after a long flight.I tried 3 of those tests and they all showed a very faint line indicating i have covid.I tried a different at-home test (not flowflex) and that one was negative.I have also gone to cvs for a lab pcr (polymerase chain reaction) test which has also come back negative.It appears there is an issue with the flowflex covid-19 antigen home test giving false positive results.Thanks.Fda safety report id# (b)(4).
