“…Academic detailing, care pathways/guidelines, and pharmacist review can improve empiric antibiotic selection for community-acquired pneumonia. [23][24][25][26][27] The use of rapid, viral pathogen-detection assays has been proposed as a means to reduce antibiotic initiation and facilitate earlier discontinuation among ED patients with respiratory tract infections (eg, influenza). [28][29][30][31] The ID NOW point-of-care testing platform by Abbott (Chicago, IL) that is used for rapid influenza, strep A, and respiratory syncytial virus now has a test for COVID-19 that can deliver a test result in 13 minutes with over 90% agreement with molecular polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays for SARS-Cov-2.…”

Due to the rapidly evolving nature of this outbreak, and in the interests of rapid dissemination of reliable, actionable information, this paper went through expedited peer review. Additionally, information should be considered current only at the time of publication and may evolve as the science develops. BACKGROUND Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a novel viral pathogen and its associated clinical syndrome (COVID-19) is the cause of an ongoing global pandemic involving hundreds of thousands of deaths. While current research efforts focus primarily on identifying therapeutic interventions, it is important to consider the collateral effects of COVID-19 on other public health crises.
