Article Synopsis
- SARS-CoV-2 has caused the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the need for systematic testing to control its spread through isolation and contact tracing.
- A major challenge in testing is the limited availability of diagnostic resources; pooled testing could help by combining samples to reduce costs and resource use.
- This article reviews current pooled testing models and suggests practical guidelines for large-scale implementation to improve testing efficiency and help flatten the infection curve.
This data article describes the infectivity of transmitted/founder (TF) and non-TF (NT) HIV-1 viruses derived from primary CD4 T cells treated with or without IFN-α, over a period of 12 days. TF and NT viruses described in this article were derived from the same individual (one of each from 8 infants who acquired HIV infection through mother-to-child transmission (MTCT). IFN-α resistance to both TF and NT viruses was studied by infecting TZM-bl cells and measuring luciferase expression (expressed as relative light units, RLU).
