“…People were not interested in the differential accuracies and settings for the use of diagnostic tests, and great confusion was generated. In addition, there was poor communication regarding the difference between analytical vs clinical meaning [ 3 ]. Scientists should instead have clarified that not all tests are created for the same purpose, validation before marketing is relevant, and more expensive assays, such as genotyping, are not always more meaningful from a diagnostic point of view.…”

“…In these conditions, it is likely that the decision to refer a patient to hospital depended mainly on the severity of the clinical picture or on how suggestive it was of SARS-CoV-2. Emerging evidence suggests that severity and poor prognosis in COVID-19 patients could be related to an excessive response of the immune system, mainly characterized by the abnormal release of circulating cytokines and by unusual biochemical parameters observed in these patients ( Anastasi et al, 2022 ; Anastasi et al, 2020 ; Gandini et al, 2020 ; Antonelli et al, 2021 ). The incubation time from exposure to symptom onset commonly is from 2 to 14 days ( Chan et al, 2020 ; Lauer et al, 2020 ).…”
