SARS-CoV-2 Presence in the Saliva, Tears, and Cerumen of COVID-19 Patients

BLUF

A multidisciplinary team of researchers from Istanbul Medeniyet University, Turkey conducted a cross-sectional study on SARS-CoV-2 RNA extraction from saliva, tear, and cerumen samples of 38 COVID-19 patients. 76.3% of saliva samples, 56% of tear samples, and 39.5% of cerumen samples had positive RT-PCR tests (Table 2), and viral load was significantly higher in nasopharyngeal-oropharyngeal and saliva samples compared to tear and cerumen samples (Figure 1). These results suggest the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in bodily secretions, requiring adequate precautions and protective equipment in procedures involving saliva, tears, or cerumen.

Summary

- COVID-19 was confirmed in these patients through a positive RT-PCR test of nasopharyngeal-oropharyngeal swab samples.
