Roche, Abbott COVID Antigen Tests Just So-So in Real-World Data

— "Unsatisfactory" for screening asymptomatic people, say German lab professionals

Sensitivities for the antigen tests were especially low -- under 40% -- when the individuals had no comorbidities, were asymptomatic (just 23% for the Abbott test and barely 30% for Roche's), or had previously recovered from COVID.
In addition, the antigen tests also did poorly when PCR analysis indicated that the so-called alpha variant (B.1.1.7) was involved, which the researchers could not explain. They noted that earlier lab studies had found no loss of sensitivity with this variant.
