Are there examples of studies on people testing positive months later? qPCR is used in many settings for medical testing and the guidelines for other diseases are that residual bacterial RNA is cleared 7-14 days after successful antibiotic treatment. Obviously, COVID is caused by a virus, but a much longer period to clear viral RNA is not intuitive.
