In its January 10 bulletin that was released on Sunday, the consortium also said that the BA.2, a sub-lineage of the Omicron variant, has been found in substantial fraction in the country and because of it S-gene dropout based testing was likely to give high false negatives.The BA.2 sub-lineage is not detected in S-gene dropout test. This testing method is used to detect the presence of Omicron variant as it cannot be detected by basic RT-PCR and RAT tests. When the S-gene dropout test detects the presence of other genes of the Sars-CoV-2 virus, but not the S-gene, it is considered indicative of Omicron infection.According to the WHO’s guidelines, this testing is used as a proxy method to detect suspected Omicron cases, which are confirmed...Read more
