Should I call and follow up after a CB?

Had a callback approx. 2 weeks ago - haven't heard anything.
Should I call in and ask if they need any more info from me? Express how interested I am?
Any advice is appreciated!

Preface: this advice is from a 2L without a job offer.
I think the email is a good idea. After two weeks the decision might be made already but I don't think that writing a follow up email can hurt.

Not saying it would really hurt that much to follow up but I guess I don't much upside besides finality from following up post-cb. I only did that once and the rejection came hours later.
I see follow ups as primarily useful pre-screener, post-application, of considerably less use post-screener, and of even less use post-cb. They know who you are and will make a decision, I don't know that rushing that decision turns in favor of a candidate as against it.
But like I said it probably won't help or hurt.
