Peterborough-based law firm Miskin Law says it has reframed its class-action lawsuit by dropping all references to Ottawa coronavirus test kit producer Spartan BioScience Inc.
On Tuesday, Miskin Law announced it was planning to file a lawsuit over false positive test results from Case Manor Care Community long-term in Bobcaygeon.
In late April, the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit said a dozen results (six residents and six staff) were initially positive, prompting an outbreak to be declared in late April.
However, last Friday the health unit said Ottawa-based Bio-Test Laboratories which reviewed test samples from April 25-26 had a technical error which produced false positive results.
