The evaluation of our CCHF RDT is out! Our test was 90.4% sensitive and 96.2% specific in prospective serum samples in Türkiye. We are looking forward to the next steps to take this test through to commercialisation. A huge effort from all involved! ⬇️ thelancet.com/journals/ebiom…

Those who seek care early using tools like GeneXpert tend to achieve better outcomes.Bruce Kirenga Winters Muttamba Themba 🇺🇬🇷🇼 The LIGHT Consortium Dr Jasper Nidoi Joy
