Impact of Covid-19 pandemic on Legionella testing and infection rates in Ontario
Legionella testing rates decreased by 8% in 2020 and 8% in 2021 and increased by 14% in 2022, which was associated with a decrease in positivity rate only in 2020, at 13%, but not in the other two years. Maintaining vigilance for Legionella testing in future pandemics may support timely diagnosis and treatment, leading to improved patient outcomes. Co-detection of Legionella with SARS-CoV-2 or seasonal respiratory viruses was rare but present dur…
Evaluating HIV Rapid/Point of Care Testing among Risk Factor Groups in Ontario, 2011 to 2018
Targeted testing towards populations at higher risk of HIV improved the overall test performance characteristics of Ontario's POC testing program. While not unexpected, the large discrepancies between PPV in higher-risk, compared to lower-risk populations, suggests the need for greater awareness and messaging of the likelihood of false positive test results in different populations
