Two class-action lawsuit have been filed against Teterboro-based Infinity Diagnostics Labs, a company that sold kits that promised rapid coronavirus test results that were actually antibody tests, according to the lawsuits.
The FBI raided the company’s office in Ventnor City in early December and advised customers who were tested using a finger prick blood test to be retested.
No explanation was given but the FBI cited the Food and Drug Administration s website as saying rapid finger prick blood tests are only antibody tests and should not be used for diagnosing active cases of coronavirus. Only a test that uses a nasal swab or saliva should be used to diagnose active cases of COVID-19, according to the FDA.
