This study used a post-hoc analysis of pre-COVID-19 data collected for a prospective aetiological study on pharyngotonsillitis in Swedish PHC [9], to investigate (1) the proportion of patients tested with RADT and/or CRP, (2) the association between POC test results and antibiotic prescribing, and (3) the association between CRP level and microbial aetiology. Here, CRP is linked to COVID-19.
