Frequently Asked Questions
What does CLIA Waived mean?
CLIA Waived devices are the least complex. In order to receive CLIA Waived status, a manufacturer must demonstrate that a device is simple to use, has low risk to public health, and that an untrained person can get accurate results by reading the instructions.
What is the difference between Influenza A & Influenza B?
While the symptoms of influenza B mirrors those of A, the main difference between the two strains is who it can affect. Strains of influenza B are exclusively contracted by humans, while A can be carried (and spread) by animals, however, both strains are transmitted mainly by respiratory droplets from coughing and contact with an infected person. This allows strains of A to be spread more rapidly than B, while also meaning strains of B cannot cause pandemics with symptoms likely less severe. Flu shots protect against both strains of influenza.
What does Sensitivity and Specificity mean?
In a diagnostic test, Sensitivity is a measure of how well a test can identify true positives. In a diagnostic test, Specificity is a measure of how well a test can identify true negatives.
