>> Kim: MICHIGAN HAS LOST
ANOTHER 25 PEOPLE TO THE
CORONAVIRUS.
THE STATE REPORTING 108 NEW
CASES AND MORE THAN 59,100
PEOPLE HAVE BEEN INFECTED.
NEARLY 5700 OF THOSE PEOPLE
HAVE DIED.
>>> HEALTH OFFICIALS CONTINUE
TO EMPHASIZE THE NEED FOR
ACCURATE TESTING.
BUT RESEARCH IS CALLING INTO
QUESTION THE ACCURACY OF SOME
TESTS.
DR. McGEORGE IS HERE WITH THE
CONCERN AND WHEN THEY’RE MOST
LIKELY TO BE ACCURATE.
DOC?
>> Dr. McGeorge: YOU KNOW,
IMAGINE GETTING A TEST FOR
COVID-19 BECAUSE YOU WORK AT A
JOB WHERE YOU COME IN CONTACT
WITH LOTS OF PEOPLE OR MAYBE
YOU’LL BE VISITING YOUR
ELDERLY GRANDMOTHER IN HER
NURSING HOME AND THEN TOLD THE
TEST IS NEGATIVE AND YOU FEEL
LIKE YOU’RE GOOD TO GO, RIGHT?
IT COULD BE FALSELY NEGATIVE
AROUND 20% OF THE TIME.
TWO RECENT PAPERS ARE
HIGHLIGHTING THE NEED TO
REEXAMINE THE ACCURACY OF THE
NASAL SWAB TEST TO IDENTIFY
ACTIVE INFECTION WITH
COVID-19.
THE MOST RECENT ONE IN THE NEW
ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE IS
SPECIFICALLY CALLING ON THE
FDA TO BETTER HIGHLIGHT THE
PROBLEM AND PROVIDE CLEARER
PREDICTION RULES THAT FACTOR
IN THE INACCURACY.
AND A LOOK AT PUBLISHED
INFORMATION FROM 7 OTHER
STUDIES WITH OVER 1300
PATIENTS FOUND COVID-19 TESTS
MAY TELL A PERSON THEY AREN’T
INFECTED WHEN THEY REALLY ARE,
AN AVERAGE OF 1 OUT OF 5
TIMES.
THEY FOUND THE TIMING OF THE
TEST, RELATIVE TO WHEN A
PERSON WAS INFECTED PLAYED A
SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN HOW
SENSITIVE THE TEST WAS.
ON THE FIRST DAY OF INFECTION
AFTER EXPOSURE, THE FALSE
NEGATIVE RATE WAS 100%.
NONE OF THE TESTS WERE
CORRECTLY POSITIVE.
BY DAY 4, THE NUMBER DECREASED
TO 67% OF TESTS, INCORRECTLY
IDENTIFYING A PERSON AS
NEGATIVE.
ON DAY 5, THE TESTBETTER, 38%
FALSE NEGATIVES, AND IT WASN’T
UNTIL THE EIGHTH DAY THAT THE
FALSE NEGATIVE RATE REACHED
THE LOW OF 20%.
AFTER THAT, IT INCREASED AGAIN
FROM 21% ON DAY 9 TO 66% ON
DAY 21.
NOW, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF
THE SPREAD HERE IN MICHIGAN, I
HAVE SEEN PLENTY OF PEOPLE
THAT INITIALLY TESTED NEGATIVE
ONLY TO TURN UP POSITIVE ON
RETESTING.
WHEN WE INTERPRET A NEGATIVE
TEST, THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT
CONSIDERATIONS FROM THE TIMING
OF THE SAMPLE TO THE PRE-TEST
RISK SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE.
>> Kim: AND TALKING ABOUT
TESTING AND RELATIVE TO
CURRENT EVENTS AND THE CONCERN
THAT PEOPLE MAY HAVE BEEN
INFECTED AT THE PROTESTS WE’RE
SEEING, IS THERE A BEST TIME
TO GET TESTED?
>> Dr. McGeorge: YOU KNOW, THE
DATA CLEARLY DOESN’T SUPPORT
GETTING TESTED THE VERY NEXT
DAY.
BASED ON THIS REPORT,
ISOLATING FOR A FEW DAYS AND
GET TESTED AROUND 5-8 IS
CLOSER TO OPTIMAL.
>> Devin: LET’S GET NOW TO A
LOCAL 4 NEWS UPDATE.
THE FUTURE OF THE ROMEO ROCK
SEEMS TO BE UP IN THE AIR.
THE OWNERS OF THE LAND ARE
LOOKING TO MOVE IT TO ANOTHER
LOCATION.
LAST NIGHT, SOMEONE WITH A BACKHOE TRIED TO REMOVE IT.
BACKHOE TRIED TO REMOVE IT.
IT’S BEEN UNDER THE EYE OF A
