The state of Washington sued an Illinois-based coronavirus testing company on Tuesday alleging that the firm had faked test results, lied to customers and stored thousands of samples in garbage bags instead of properly refrigerating them.

the company contributed to the spread of Covid"when it provided false negative results."

The company, which operated 13 testing sites in Washington state, advertised that it could provide Covid test results"within 15 minutes for a rapid antigen test, and within 48 hours for a more accurate PCR test,” Ferguson said in a statement. “Former employees reported that the company was receiving between 8,000 to 10,000 tests per day, and data entry staff could not keep up,” Ferguson’s statement said. “The company’s owners refused requests to hire more staff to keep up with the demand for testing.”

The company's CEO Aleya Siyaj, and her husband, Akbar Syed, did not respond to requests for comment. Both are named as co-owners of the company and are listed as defendants in the lawsuit. The couples’ previous businesses included an ax-throwing lounge and a donut shop.
