Patient claims N.J. lab exposed countless residents to COVID-19 by giving wrong tests
Updated Dec 12, 2020;
Less than a week after the FBI urged anyone who got a COVID-19 test at an Atlantic County laboratory to get retested, one patient filed a lawsuit against the lab, claiming the lab advertised and administered the wrong tests, exposing people and their families to sickness and death.
Attorneys for Dana Kares, a Burlington County resident, sued Infinity Diagnostics Laboratory, of Ventnor City, for advertising finger-prick blood tests as effective tests to detect COVID-19, despite being meant to detect antibodies. The lab advertised the finger-prick blood tests as as a “COVID test”, “COVID Testing” or “rapid 10-minute testing” for COVID-19, according to the complaint.
