Overcoming Limitations in the Availability of Swabs Systems Used for SARS-CoV-2 Laboratory Diagnostics

2020-06-23

Abstract excerpt

The diagnosis of COVID-19 relies on the direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in respiratory specimens by RT-PCR. The pandemic spread of the disease caused an imbalance between demand and supply of materials and reagents needed for diagnostic purposes including swab sets. In a comparative effectiveness study, we conducted serial follow-up swabs in hospitalized laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 patients. We assessed the d...
