Resource Optimization Through Group Testing in the Detection of Asymptomatic People with COVID-19

2021-02-18

Abstract excerpt

Background: The current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a serious global public health problem. Detection and isolation of people infected with the virus is crucial to public health measures. Hitherto, the real-time PCR (RT-PCR) test is the most useful method for viral detection, although high cost of performance and low supplies have limited testing. New ways to optimize RT-PCR testing performance...
