In the context of a second wave of SARS-CoV-2 transmission, the use of saliva sampling has become an issue of real importance. SARS-CoV-2 RNA screening was performed on nasopharyngeal and saliva swabs collected from 501 individuals from residential homes for the elderly. The saliva samples were collected at the same time as the nasopharyngeal samples. Nasopharyngeal samples yielded positive results for 26 individuals, only two of whom also tested positive with saliva swabs. In this context, saliva collected by swabbing the fluid is not an ideal sample.
在 SARS-CoV-2 传播的第二波浪潮中，唾液采样的应用变得非常重要。我们对来自养老院的 501 名个体的鼻咽和唾液拭子进行了 SARS-CoV-2 RNA 筛查。这些唾液样本与鼻咽样本同时采集。鼻咽样本中，有 26 人呈阳性，其中仅 2 人也通过唾液拭子检测呈阳性。在这种情况下，通过拭子采集的唾液并不是理想的样本。
