COVID-19 Testing Update: Joseph Yao, M.D.

from Answers from the Lab · host Mayo Clinic Laboratories

(00:55) Can you tell us what you've been working on since last May? (03:19) How many assays did you end up validating just for detection of that single virus?  (04:36) How many specimens at the peak of the pandemic were you able to test in one day?   (05:29) So can you tell us a little bit more about this test that you're using for sequencing?  (08:18) How would a clinician who orders this test then use the results to change how they're caring for the patient? (10:22) So are there other tests like this on the market for actual clinical use? (11:18) We continue to learn more and more about COVID-19. We've now tackled identification and sequencing. What's next? (13:03) How have you been keeping yourself healthy and maintaining that healthy work-life balance? (13:53) Is there anything else you'd like to share with our listeners or viewers today?
