当对Covid-19等疾病进行测试时,标准方法是单独的测试:我们从每个人那里进行样本,并分别测试这些样品。当疾病的患病率较低并且测试的准确性相当高,合并的测试策略比单个测试更有效时,对不同的池和合并样品进行了测试。在本章中,我们讨论了汇总测试及其在大流行期间的使用,尤其是COVID-19大流行病。这样的协议。
When testing for a disease such as COVID-19, the standard method is individual testing: we take a sample from each individual and test these samples separately. An alternative is pooled testing (or ‘group testing’), where samples are mixed together in different pools, and those pooled samples are tested. When the prevalence of the disease is low and the accuracy of the test is fairly high, pooled testing strategies can be more efficient than individual testing. In this chapter, we discuss the mathematics of pooled testing and its uses during pandemics, in particular the COVID-19 pandemic. We analyse some one- and two-stage pooling strategies under perfect and imperfect tests, and consider the practical issues in the application of such protocols.
