Although enormous research and product development effort has been applied to point-of-care viral load testing, the current paradigm of nucleic acid tests and antigen assays continues to demonstrate fundamental limitations that derive from their inherent complexity and lack of robustness, which in turn impact their costs and practicality for adoption in resource-limited settings. We seek to…
