The visual explanation of the ideas and concepts presented there, also mentioned in the later podcast: Medcram: “Coronavirus Pandemic Update 98: At Home COVID-19 Testing - A Possible Breakthrough” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7Sv_pS8MgQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7Sv_pS8MgQ Also, regarding the Ct value, from: “Interpreting the COVID-19 Test Results: a Guide for Physiatrists” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7268832/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7268832/ In PCR tests “the diagnosis is made based on the threshold cycle (Ct) value. Ct is defined as the cycle number when the sample fluorescence exceeds a chosen threshold above the calculated background fluorescence.5 In other words, the lower the Ct value of a specific gene, the more the gene exists in the sample. However, the problem with a Ct-based diagnosis is that there is no absolute or constant Ct cut-off value, and Ct cut-off values are different for each diagnostic reagent even for the same gene.”
