    Abstract "Black Swan" is an unexpected and catastrophic event characterized by three conditions: the anomalous and exceptional value, the extreme impact, and predictability a posteriori. On many sides - by politicians, commentators, scientists - there have been attempts to give the COVID-19 pandemic event the meaning of Black Swan. In reality, one should wonder if the Black Swan was not, instead (or even), the way the epidemic was handled. In Italy, an unreasonable use of a two-step protocol - IgM/IgG anti-COVID followed by RT-PCR in the serologically positive only has caused considerable uncertainty, particularly relevant in measures for maintenance or readmission to work of health personnel. This protocol could be affected by serious uncertainties arising from the analytical limitations of the tests used. To quantify this defect, we evaluated the analytical specifications of serological tests under different prevalence conditions. In conclusion, although laboratory diagnostics represent a useful tool, it can only be used for epidemiological purposes and not to provide healthy pass.

    Abstract Introduction: Candidemia can be a significant cause of death in immunosuppressed or debilitated patients particularly. Abnormalities of the instrumental cytograms of some hematological analyzers, such as Mindray BC-6800Plus, can be related to circulating Candida. We studied the possible diagnostic usefulness of this information.
    Methods: A fungal bloodstream infection has been simulated by adding aliquots of Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis, and Candida glabrata to 75 leftovers and anonymized peripheral blood samples. Cytographic abnormalities like those of experimental samples were used to select patients with possible fungemia. The microscopic review of peripheral blood smears constituted the confirmatory method.
    Results: In all experimental samples, the various Candida types caused pseudo-NRBC and morphological abnormalities of WNB and DIFF cytograms. Circulating blastospores, free or engulfed by neutrophils, were the microscopic findings in the peripheral blood smears. In the clinical verification, 72 patients were recruited based on the presence of an evocative cluster in the WNB and DIFF cytograms. The microscopic review of 39 out of 72 samples was positive for NRBC. According to blood cultures, light microscopy revealed fungal forms of several Candida or non-Candida types in the remaining 33 samples. Nine of these cases were not yet known to suffer from bloodstream infection.
    Conclusions: Although further confirmatory clinical studies are required for these diagnostic abilities, the BC 6800Plus cytographic abnormalities related to fungemia have proven helpful in rapidly monitoring persistent fungemia in already diagnosed patients. In unknown or undiagnosed cases, they could be the trigger point for the subsequent diagnostic-therapeutic pathway.
