The association between SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR cycle threshold and mortality in a community cohort

Ct values from RT-PCR tests are associated with risk of mortality in SARS-CoV-2 infection. Hazards of Ct values <20 compared to >30 were 2.20 (95% CI 1.28–3.76) in a model adjusted for age, sex, comorbidities and hospitalisation. https://bit.ly/3gjuqdU
