A new type of coronavirus test offers a cheaper, quicker way to screen for infections, moving the U.S. toward the kind of mass screening that experts say is essential to returning millions of Americans to school and work. But the first so-called antigen test _ announced Saturday, may 9, 2020 by the Food and Drug Administration _ is not quite the kind sought by top government health officials. It is less accurate than the current gold standard for testing and can only be run on specialized equipment. (NIAID-RML via AP)
In via precauzionale in seguito all’arrivo della variate Omicron, il ministero della Salute raccomanda alle Regioni di rafforzare e monitorare le attività di tracciamento e sequenziamento in caso di viaggiatori provenienti da Paesi a rischio o in caso di focolai caratterizzati da rapido ed anomalo incremento di casi. L’indicazione è di applicare tempestivamente e scrupolosamente le misure già previste per la variante Delta.
