We've done a lot of shows about COVID-19, but today we're going to breakdown testing for the virus. The different kinds, antibody vs diagnostic, and other confusing parts of the process.
Joining us is Dr. Yolanda "Linda" Reid Chassiakos, a Clinical Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at the David Geffen School of Medicine, UCLA, and the Director and Medical Chief of Staff at the Klotz Student Health Center, at California State University Northridge.
She tells us how there is no textbook to turn to diagnose or do the appropriate testing, and how we the public are learning just like the doctors, as we go when it comes to testing for COVID-19.
