  Evaluation Summary:

  The authors developed an approach for surveillance screening for SARS-CoV-2, which involves the isothermic amplification of a region of the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid gene using RT-LAMP, followed by detection with deep sequencing. High-throughput and cost effectiveness is achieved by two sets of barcodes that allow up to about 37,000 samples to be combined into one deep sequencing run. Moreover, the authors demonstrate they can do the detection from saliva collected on paper, which should make sample collection easier. The main strength of the work lies in solving the technical aspects for the approach to work. The main weakness is that real-world high-throughput detection is not conclusively demonstrated as only 8 clinical saliva samples are examined.
