Specimens obtained for testing included cervical or vaginal swabs for women and urethral swabs for men. A total of 178 samples were collected from sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinics at Shantou Second People’s Hospital in China from June 2020 to November 2020, including 29 samples from men and 149 samples from women. We collected two swabs from the same part of a patient, one for culture and one for nuclear acid detection with the RPA-CRISPR-Cas12a assay. Samples were processed within 2 h after collection. The study was approved by the Institutional Medical Ethics Review Board of Shantou Second People’s Hospital.
