A House subcommittee is driving up pressure on companies marketing coronavirus antibody tests as the nation prepares to reopen

to help antibody tests reach the market quickly, instead allowing companies to self-evaluate the accuracy of their products. Researchers have begun issuing evidence that many of the tests are falling short of typical accuracy standards, producing false positives that could lead people to believe they've developed protection against the virus.

Krishnamoorthi pointed to evidence obtained by University of California reseachers that tests marketed by the companies he's targeting fall short of the accuracy they claim in their marketing materials and instructions for use. In addition, UCP Biosciences has not been identified by the FDA as one of the 150 tests allowed on the market, yet its tests were purchased by a 25-bed hospital in rural Kansas, according to local reports.

kyledcheney Has FEMA ever accounted for all the materiel that the states have tracked down and ordered only to have confiscated by FEMA? What have they done with that? Or have they just removed it from circulation?
