About: Quantifying SARS-CoV-2 infectivity, formulating well-calibrated public-health policy, and managing the safety of workplaces would all be facilitated by precise measurement of the extent to which SARS-CoV-2 RNA is present in an intact form in biological specimens and human environments. We describe assays that use digital PCR in nanoliter droplets (droplet digital PCR) to measure these properties. Such assays could be broadly deployed to inform COVID-19 epidemiology, measure symptomatic and asymptomatic infectivity, and help manage the safety of environments in which people live, move, and work.   Goto Sponge  NotDistinct  Permalink
