A1. Also important to know some of the rapid tests, like the Abbott Laboratories test can only test one sample at a time. This can take 5-15 min depending on the results. Working in a hospital lab, while the test may not be rapid, it can test multiple people at once. #LCSM
Dr. Amy C. Moore @acmoorephd
@JFreemanDaily, the tests to confirm infection look for genetic material (in this case RNA). Antibodies are generated in response to viral antigens (proteins), which is the basis of antibody testing used to confirm a prior exposure, not active infection #lcsm

@TimAllenMDJD Antibody tests, aka serology, used to confirm prior infection. However, important few things we don’t know yet: 1) do antibodies protect from future infxn (usually yes but we don’t know for COVID, 2) how much do cancer rx’s suppress development of antibodies after COVID infection

@DrChowdharyMD @AndyMuddVA This is an interesting Q we will all have to think about soon. Trouble is - if a cancer pt is asymptom carrier, how will U alter therapy? I’m sure it varies per pt but my gut is that we shouldn’t test unless result will impact treatment. But still contemplating.... 🤔 #LCSM

@LeciaSequist @TimAllenMDJD Lecia is right about useful diagnosis... there are tests that might be able to help you decrease/increase the suggestion that something is cancerous, but not necessarily in a meaningful way.
