the article title is a bit of a mismatch for the situation. the TLDR is that the sequencing method that is used to comprehensively reveal variant character [rather than general presence] must be federally approved in order to be coupled to PII. there is still surveilance sequencing occuring and that is how variants are detected. presently delta is upfront Variant of Concern [VOC] however is not the only VOC and the possibility of new variation being generated during extended periods of transmision is always a possibility of concern. you are allowed to know what variant, however the health system is not allowed to accidentally mislead you regarding variant, by way of using a nonconclusive sequencing method
