SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia in a Healthy Blood Donor 40 Days After Respiratory Illness Resolution	2020-07-17		.txt	text/plain	289	26	55	title: SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia in a Healthy Blood Donor 40 Days After Respiratory Illness Resolution than 1 month after symptom resolution is concerning in light of current guidelines, which do not recommend SARS-CoV-2 screening in the general allogeneic donor population (5) . In this case, plasma viral RNA was reproducibly detected at a time point that exceeded recommendations for deferral based on time since symptom resolution (14 days). Of importance, these results are unlikely to be false-positive given that 2 different regions of the SARS-CoV-2 genome were detected in separate specimens collected on the day of donation and that quality control passed on all runs, including the absence of amplification in the negative controls. Of note, however, the infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 from blood remains unknown and, to date, we are not aware of cases of transfusion-transmitted COVID-19.
