Oh man, that’s not a great pathway and I’m sure it also leads to things being deferred again because they’ve been on empiric therapy for too long and “the yield is too low.”

Yep. And if they do get a sample and the cultures come back negative (because they've been on therapy), they lose faith in our micro lab because karius found it and we didn't. But if they had just done culture to begin with, we would have an isolate and susceptibility results. Vicious cycle!
