| Core Tip |
The global outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) leads to the development of SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen-detection tests (RAT), as a fast and accurate diagnosis is crucial to curb the pandemic. Evaluated RAT demonstrated satisfactory performance with more reliable results in younger patients. The young age group was significantly less likely to be false negative, whereas the false negatives from the elderly group showed significantly lower Ct values. Therefore, RT-PCR remains a gold standard in the SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis. |
