COVID-19 and clinic laboratory diagnostics

Аннотация

Тhe pandemic of a new coronavirus infection has caused an urgent need to develop, validate and put into prac- tice effective methods of laboratory diagnostics that allow to verify the etiology of the disease, determine the presence of an immune response and its phase, as well as assess a wide range of pathophysiological disorders and complications arising from COVID-19. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the important place of laboratory diagnostics is beyond doubt. It is the means and methods of laboratory diagnostics that are of fundamental importance for identify- ing those infected, including when the disease is asymptomatic or symptoms have not yet appeared, as well as for ob- jectively determining the severity of the condition.
