Abbott Labs’ rapid coronavirus diagnostic test could be missing nearly half of positive cases, according to a new study from researchers at New York University, which describes the test as “unacceptable.”
When using samples collected with “dry nasal swabs,” the Abbott test missed more than 48% of positive cases, the study said.
Abbott disputed the findings of the study, adding that it has distributed about 1.8 million of the tests and the reported false-negative rate is 0.02%.
