Intended Use

The TaqPath? COVID-19 Fast PCR Combo Kit 2.0 is a real?time reverse transcription polymerase chain

reaction (RT?PCR) test intended for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in saliva

collected without preservatives in a sterile container under the supervision of a healthcare provider in

a healthcare setting from individuals suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider. Testing is

limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA),

42 U.S.C. ∫263a, that meet requirements to perform high complexity tests.

Results are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. The SARS-CoV-2 RNA is generally detectable in

saliva specimens during the acute phase of infection. Positive results are indicative of the presence of

SARS-CoV-2 RNA; clinical correlation with patient history and other diagnostic information is necessary

to determine patient infection status. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection

with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. Laboratories within

the United States and its territories are required to report all test results to the appropriate public health

authorities.

Negative results do not preclude SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for

patient management decisions. Negative results must be combined with clinical observations, patient

history, and epidemiological information. Negative results for SARS-CoV-2 RNA from saliva should be

confirmed by testing of an alternative specimen type, if clinically indicated.

The TaqPath? COVID-19 Fast PCR Combo Kit 2.0 is intended for use by qualified clinical laboratory

personnel specifically instructed and trained in the techniques of real?time PCR and in vitro diagnostic

procedures.
