Is the 1M/day figure for individual tests? When the expected number of positives is low, can't you run group tests? Mix the first samples from 16 patients together and test them as a batch. If the result is negative, all 16 are negative. Otherwise re-run the second samples. Depending on how many samples you take from each patient, you can binary search, or just run 16 individual tests on the second samples. By doing this, you can get something upwards of 10x increase in people tested per day. |
