2019 Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19): Paving the Road for Rapid Detection and Point-of-Care Diagnostics
subject: COVID-19, Wuhan, 2019 novel coronavirus, point-of-care detection, SARS-CoV-2, (loop-mediated isothermal amplification) lamp assay, Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
description: We believe a point-of-care (PoC) device for the rapid detection of the 2019 novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is crucial and urgently needed. With this perspective, we give suggestions regarding a potential candidate for the rapid detection of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), as well as factors for the preparedness and response to the outbreak of the COVID-19.
