The `--apply_qc` parameter generates the `results_report.html` which reports SNPs across genomic features as well as QC results, aggregates results for all samples, summarizes QC (qc_summary.csv), and filters out SNPs from low quality samples or amplicons that did not pass the minimum count of unique sequences (see `--search_seqs`). There are a number of parameters that control QC pass/fail thresholds in the `nextflow.config` file. For example, the `--max_qc_flags` adjusts the maximum allowable number of "soft fail" QC flags allowable before sample is failed. Currently, samples instantly fail if no amplicons are detected, number of reads are insufficient (< min_map), or there is insufficient pathogen content detected (see `filter_qc.py`).
