CONCLUSIONS: Commercial multiplex respiratory virus assays have good performance for samples with medium to high viral loads (Ct values <33). Laboratories should consider appropriate test result review and confirmation protocols to optimize sensitivity, and may consider reporting samples with additional interpretive comments when low viral loads are detected.

CONCLUSION: This study suggests that viral coinfections are significantly higher among SARS CoV-2 negative individuals (23.8 vs. 1.2%). It is possibly due to viral interference and the competitive advantage of SARS CoV-2 in modulating the host
