ID NOW COVID-19 2.0 24T Point-of-Care Device Recall
Abbott Diagnostics is recalling certain lots of the ID NOW COVID-19 2.0 24T test device due to higher-than-expected rates of invalid test results. The affected devices were distributed nationwide.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall. The hazard is invalid test results (a performance/accuracy defect) with no reported illnesses or injuries. The source text explicitly states only that invalid rates are higher than expected, which constitutes a functional defect without known adverse health consequences.
