    ALTHOUGH THE INVESTIGATION IS STILL IN PROGRESS, TESTING WAS PERFORMED AT ABBOTT DIAGNOSTICS (B)(4), INC. ON RETAINED KIT LOT 1013088 WITH INTERNAL POSITIVE QUALITY CONTROL SAMPLES AND NEGATIVE QUALITY CONTROL SWABS. ALL TEST RESULTS WERE VALID AND PERFORMED AS EXPECTED. ADDITIONALLY, THE MANUFACTURING BATCH RECORDS AND QUALITY CONTROL RELEASE TESTING FOR KIT PART NUMBER 190-000/ LOT 1013088 AND TEST BASE PART NUMBER 190-430/ LOT 1013088 WERE REVIEWED. THIS LOT MET THE REQUIRED RELEASE SPECIFICATIONS.
