SARS-CoV-2 Ct values and COVID-19 symptoms in patients with haematological malignancies in South Africa

SARS-CoV-2 Ct values and COVID-19 symptoms in patients with haematological malignancies in South Africa

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) cycle threshold (Ct) values serve as surrogate markers for estimating viral load. Their usefulness in patients with haematological malignancies and COVID-19 has not been...
