SARS-CoV-2 detection in multi-sample pools in a real pandemic scenario: a screening strategy of choice for active surveillance

2021-12-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The current COVID-19 pandemic has overloaded the diagnostic capacity of laboratories by the gold standard method rRT-PCR. This disease has a high spread rate and almost a quarter of infected individuals never develop symptoms. In this scenario, active surveillance is crucial to stop the virus propagation. <h4>Methods</h4> Between July 2020 and April 2021, 11580 oropharyngeal swab samples collec...
