Title: Efficient high throughput SARS-CoV-2 testing to detect asymptomatic carriers Document date: 2020_4_20
ID: bby9hls2_32
Snippet: The efficiency of group testing, often measured by the ratio between the number of screened individuals to the number of pools, generally increases with the decreasing frequency of the observed trait. For example, screening for a trait that appears in 0.1% of the population can be done more efficiently than screening for a trait that appears in 1% of the population. Moreover, when the carrier rate exceeds ~5% group testing is no longer effective,.....
Document: The efficiency of group testing, often measured by the ratio between the number of screened individuals to the number of pools, generally increases with the decreasing frequency of the observed trait. For example, screening for a trait that appears in 0.1% of the population can be done more efficiently than screening for a trait that appears in 1% of the population. Moreover, when the carrier rate exceeds ~5% group testing is no longer effective, since the required number of pools would be comparable to the number of samples tested.
