Tool for Estimating the Probability of Having COVID-19 With 1 or More Negative RT-PCR Results.

Early case detection and isolation of infected individuals are critical to controlling coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

We built a user-friendly online tool to estimate the probability of having COVID-19 with negative RT-PCR results and thus avoid preventable transmission.
