The Need

In patients of all ages, influenza and RSV often present with similar clinical symptoms, making it difficult to differentiate between the two infections¹
Sensitivities of Rapid EIA Flu tests range from 50-70%²
Sensitivities of Rapid Antigen RSV tests average 29% in adults³
Both Rapid EIA and Antigen manufacturers suggest confirming negative results with RT-PCR or culture²
