A COVID testing lab that has received millions of dollars in taxpayer money has been operating without authorization in California
A CBS2 investigation has found a COVID testing lab that got millions of dollars of taxpayer money has been operating without authorization in California, and federal investigators said the lab’s test results could be flawed.
Stephanie received an email 10 days later from Northshore showing she now tested positive for COVID. Then five days later, Northshore sent another email showing that based on the same sample, she was really negative. Northshore Clinical has labs in Chicago and Ohio, and contracted with pop-up COVID testing sites around the country. The labs “are” licensed by the federal government to do COVID testing, but not licensed to process PCR tests from samples in California, according to the state Department of Public Health, who confirmed that Northshore is under investigation.
“Anybody who had ever sent anything to this lab needs to be very concerned that the results that they got back are accurate,” Garner said.
