Every news article has finite space. Here are four documented facts that rarely appear in the coverage of Kevin Murdock — each sourced from federal publications, government websites, or attorney records.
Pooled PCR testing with reflex-to-individual — the same methodology used by Premier Medical — was published by the CDC in their own Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR Vol. 70 No. 49, December 10, 2021). The same federal contractor, eTrueNorth, managed logistics for both.
Kevin Murdock operated six independently CLIA-certified labs across five states (SC, TX, UT, NC, FL). Each had its own lab director and state regulatory framework. All six operated. Only one was targeted.
“Kevin agreed to this resolution solely to avoid the significant cost, time, and uncertainty of a lengthy trial. The Consent Judgment does not include any finding or admission of wrongdoing on Kevin’s part.”
During the same period covered by the charges, the South Carolina Governor’s office endorsed a $51 million investment by Kevin Murdock creating 185 new jobs. SC Secretary of Commerce Harry Lightsey provided an on-the-record endorsement. Published on the Governor’s official .gov website.
Each laboratory was independently CLIA-certified with its own lab director and its own state regulatory framework.
