Once again, failure of the thread starter to be able to read proper English sentence structure and lack of fundamental knowledge of content.
Fortunately. I have 30 years of lab medicine expertise, so I'll try to explain.
It all starts with poor reading comprehension skill and preference to skip over content that doesn't give with the message one wants to hear and further broadcast. The highlighted sentence clearly says detection AND differentiation. The word differentiation is being ignored by the original poster and some subsequent posters. The test referenced tests for both covid and certain influenza viruses at the same time and reports as a positive or negative result for each of the viruses tested for SPECIFIC to the result for each virus in the test panel. This allows a patient to be tested for multiple virus with one nasal swab (if deemed appropriate by the ordering healthcare provider), as opposed to being stabbed multiple times.
This is not at all unusual in laboratory medicine. An example relevant to this board and the porn industry is STD panels. One swab yields highly reliable and specific results (at that point in time) for multiple dreaded diseases through PCR. That is technology at work...real Tech...not High Tech...don't obfuscate the terms. Originally Posted by reddog1951
Can’t help the stupid. The early test only detected Covid and you had to be separately tested for Influenza. Now they want to simplify that and use one test that can detect both so they can effectively treat people whose symptoms may be similar but only has the flu. Originally Posted by 1blackman1
Sap per. First, topic is about differentiation of results of testing for multiple viruses from one sample. I simply point out that the result for detection of each virus is reported specially and individually. Not "glumped" together as inferred.
Threshold Cycles used to determine at what point a detection is deemed "positive" for covid virus or any other pathogen assayed is an entirely different subject best left to knowledgeable molecular pathologists. It's a trade off between sensitivity and clinical relevance, not necessarily false positive as you present.
Some drug is being advertised on TV as "eliminating/curing/purging" HIV. Fine print defines as undetectable by standard laboratory tests. Even so, no way I'm dipping my wick, covered or not, in that honey pot. Originally Posted by reddog1951
