Can it be used instead of PCR Covid test for example?

This would be me more applicable to looking for variants of a known gene. For example, measuring mutation rates within known covid-positive samples.

we already have covidseq by illumina which does this at a pretty big scale and provides survaillence and diagnostics in one test.

the issue is that PCR still is the cheapest and fastest way to get the results.
