They now have PCR tests that can multiplex and test for flu and covid simultaneously.
True, but the FDA isn’t cancelling EUAs for COVID-only ones. Rightfully so, there’s so much testing going on that any single PCR assay won’t do, and the pandemic calls for it. Granted, at this point the testing bottleneck is thermal cycler capacity at CLIA certified-labs. My PCR got sent on Saturday night to Sherman Abrams in Brooklyn, they’re a pretty big lab, and I only got my results tonight (96 hours+ after testing!!)
