Episode notes

Welcome back to another episode of PASCV: Gone Viral! In this episode, we pilot a new feature format called, "That's a good test?" In these episodes, speakers will debate the pros and cons of various infectious disease-based tests used in the clinical laboratory and will try to convince you, the listener, whether or not that is a good test.

In this episode, we will be debating and disucussing the Roche cobas HIV-1/HIV-2 Qualitative Assay, and are thrilled to have Dr. Hannah Wang, MD debate from the perspective of "that's a good test!".
