Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease. The standard method of testing is real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The test is typically done on respiratory samples obtained by a nasopharyngeal swab, however a nasal swab or sputum sample may also be used. Results are generally available within a few hours to two days. As a vaccine is not expected until 2021 at the earliest, a key part of managing COVID-19 is trying to decrease the epidemic peak, known as ?flattening the curve?.
