Comparison of Real Time PCR Cycle Threshold Values in Symptomatic and Asymptomatic COVID-19 Patients

Abstract excerpt

Patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) show different clinical courses ranging from asymptomatic to severe infection requiring intensive care treatment and death. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR), used in the diagnosis, screening and surveillance of coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19), provides the viral load as a cycle threshold (Ct) value....
