The general public needs to know that there is a tsunami of lab workforce shortage even before the CoVID-19 pandemic & it is for real & it will only get worse… Thank you Dr. @BnrdG Dr. @RodneyRohde @katerodgers @CNBC for advocating the med lab profession.

The demand for Covid tests has skyrocketed as the virus spreads across the nation. But many of the medical labs that process the tests are having trouble keeping up because their workers are catching Covid too. @katerogers has the details.



We (Conference Planning Committee) had our kick-off meeting today for the 2022 ASCP-CLMA KnowledgeLab. I am very excited for the quality & relevant education that is in store for all ASCP & CLMA members at the 2022 KnowledgeLab Conference. Stay tuned #ASCP #2022KnowledgeLab


“Booster doses increases antibody binding and neutralizing activity and enhances cross reactivity against different SARS-CoV-2 variants”

Is Mixing-and-Matching booster vaccines safe & effective? Which #COVID19 vaccine is best? Do differences in dosage & wait times between doses impact vaccine performance? In this #MicrobialMinutes, we look at data addressing key questions about boosters: asm.social/dn



To all those who have served our great nation, we can’t say THANK YOU enough. #VeteransDay2021


Our HR Dir. got a call yesterday from a CEO of a Critical Access Hospital from South Dakota inquiring about our CoVID testing strategies & Lab Mgmt & hoping that we can guide them & provide mentorship. One of their staff member attended the ASCP’21 AM @ASCP_Chicago @ChrisTormey3

Test setting and patient population also play an important role in determining test performance….

There are numerous antigen tests for #SARSCoV2 under EUAs, including laboratory-based, POCT, DTC/OTC tests. @rex_mls reminds us that #antigen tests for SARS-CoV2 are not as sensitive as molecular tests & thus require a higher viral load to be detected. #ASCP2021 #COVID19
