La PCR para SARS-COV-2 es una excelente herramienta para confirmar diagnósticos, pero se habla poco de los falsos positivos, que hoy son ~4 %. Hay implicaciones terapéuticas, económicas y sociales que deben ser consideradas por el médico al solicitarlas.

Important! PCR positive != Covid case. "However, importantly, no data suggests that detection of low levels of viral RNA by RT-PCR equates with infectivity unless infectious virus particles have been confirmed with laboratory culture-based methods"

@lapublichealth Based on reporting about false positivity rate of PCR (estimated 0.8-4%), I’m curious if anyone can address how many falsely positive cases we good be expecting to get when the rate drops into the >4% range. https://t.co/S4s1Q8uWQX
