Violations outlined in the warning letters include offering test kits for sale in the US for at-home use without marketing approval, clearance or authorisation from the FDA; labelling that falsely claims the products are FDA-approved; and labelling that bears the FDA logo, which is not permitted for use on private sector materials of any kind.
At present, there is no diagnostic or antibody Covid-19 test authorised by the FDA to be used completely at home.
