Throw Away These Recalled COVID Test Kits

The diagnostic testing company Detect has voluntarily recalled more than 11,000 of their Detect COVID-19 test kits, due to an increased chance that the tests may give false negative results. As many of these things go, the recall comes “out of an abundance of caution.”

Which COVID test kits are being recalled?

You can recognize the recalled test kits by their lot numbers and use-by dates, and you can see a picture of the kits’ white-and-yellow box on the FDA’s recall announcement. The over-the-counter test kits were shipped to customers between Jul. 26 and Aug. 26, 2022.

What to do with your recalled test kit

Keep in mind that the reliability of positive test results are still expected to be accurate, so if your recalled Detect test kit says you have COVID, consider those results as valid as you normally would. You can go ahead and throw away the recalled test kits though, with the exception of their “Detect Hubs,” which isn’t affected by the recall. If you got your kits directly from Direct, you should have gotten an email with the details of the recall, and that’s all you’ll need to get a refund. If you want to contact Detect directly about the recall, you can reach them at (855) 322 3692 or support@detect.com.

An Existentialist Guide to Feeling Nothing

I recently watched “ the greatest film of all time ,” and the most boring one. In retrospect, the title alone should have been a sufficient warning: Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles . Alas, I’m old enough to be a bit nostalgic about massive telephone address books. And massive it is. Clocking over 200 minutes, Chantal Akerman's 1975 dreary drama follows three days in the monotonous routine of Jeanne, a widow, a mother, and a prostitute. I watched Jeanne’s autopilot existence, until, staring at her back as she washes dishes, I decided to fast-forward a couple of minutes, only to discover she was still at it. And Jeanne is equally thorough when she’s busy baking, cleaning, folding laundry, or shining her son’s shoes. She speaks so scarcely and mechanically, that it’s impossible to detect any emotion or volition beyond her carefully controlled chores . Watching Jeanne Dielman is what the word “painstaking” was invented for. Chantal...

What Are SQL Stored Procedures and How Do You Create Them?

Image
Stored procedures: like functions for your SQL. A stored procedure is a batch of SQL statements created and stored on a database. You can reuse a stored procedure over and over again. A stored procedure can accept parameters, run a query, and return results. Many users can call a stored procedure and different applications can call it with different parameter values. What Are the Benefits of Using Stored Procedures? Apart from allowing multiple users and applications to reuse it, a stored procedure has other benefits. It is easy to modify. You can change a stored procedure when necessary and these updates will be reflected for all users. Furthermore, you don’t need to redeploy your application when you modify the stored procedure. It reduces network traffic because the server only passes the procedure’s name over the network and not the entire query. It improves database security since users don’t have direct access to tables. To make...
