The importance of cycle threshold values in interpreting molecular tests for SARS-CoV-2

Using the Allplex™ 2019-nCoV assay (Seegene, South Korea), 285 samples were tested; 49 (17%) were positive for 3 genes, 4 (1.4%) samples were positive for 2 genes (all N gene and RdRP gene), 8 (3%) samples were positive for 1 gene (all N gene only), and 224 (78.5%) samples were negative.
