Since we’ve already established that it is allowable for BSL-2 level labs to work on Monkeypox as long as they follow certain practices, it is my contention that the CDC should not limit testing to PCR tests in BSL-3 level labs. We need that transparency.
Considering the abuses of PCR testing that we all witnessed during Covid, I think we all need to be aware of what’s going on with Monkeypox testing.
The CDC should allow testing in BSL-2 labs.
