Sensitivity and Specificity of Two WHO Approved SARS-CoV2 Antigen Assays in Detecting Patients with SARS-CoV2 Infection

2021-06-16

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen (Ag) detection kits are widely used in addition to quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR), as they are cheaper with a rapid turnaround time. As there are many concerns regarding their sensitivity and specificity, in different settings, we evaluated two WHO approved rapid Ag kits in a large cohort of Sri Lankan individuals. <bold>Methods: <...
