Case Study: Prolonged Infectious SARS-CoV-2 Shedding from an Asymptomatic Immunocompromised Individual with Cancer.

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The data indicate that certain immunocompromised patients may shed infectious virus for longer durations than previously recognized, and detection of subgenomic RNA is recommended in persistently SARS-CoV-2 positive individuals as a proxy for shedding of infectious virus.
