S-Gene Target Failure as an Effective Tool for Tracking the Emergence of Dominant SARS-CoV-2 Variants in Switzerland and Liechtenstein, Including Alpha, Delta, and Omicron BA.1, BA.2, and BA.4/BA.5
During the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the Dr. Risch medical group employed the multiplex TaqPath<sup>TM</sup> COVID-19 CE-IVD RT-PCR Kit for large-scale routine diagnostic testing in Switzerland and the principality of Liechtenstein. The TaqPath Kit is a widely used multiplex assay targeting t...
