Structured Abstract Background The urgent need for massively scaled clinical testing SARS-CoV-2, along with global shortages of critical reagents and supplies, has necessitated development streamlined laboratory protocols. Conventional nucleic acid SARS-CoV-2 involves collection a specimen nasopharyngeal swab in transport medium, extraction, quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) (1). As across the world, supply chain buckled, rendering materials scarce (2). To address shortages,...
The urgent need for massively scaled clinical testing SARS-CoV-2, along with global shortages of critical reagents and supplies, has necessitated development streamlined laboratory protocols. Conventional nucleic acid SARS-CoV-2 involves collection a specimen nasopharyngeal swab in transport medium, extraction, quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (RT-qPCR). As across the world, supply chain buckled, rendering materials scarce. To address shortages, we developed SwabExpress, an end-to-end...
Abstract Background We aimed to evaluate a testing program facilitate control of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission at large university and measure spread in the community using viral genome sequencing. Methods Our prospective longitudinal study used remote contactless enrollment, daily mobile symptom exposure tracking, self-swab sample collection. Individuals were tested if participant was exposed known SARS-CoV-2-infected person, developed new...
This study examines inequities in access to paid sick leave (PSL) by race/ethnicity, income, and sex the role of PSL on leave-taking care-seeking behaviors among Seattle-area workers months leading up during emergence COVID-19 region. Survey responses were collected online in-person from individuals experiencing acute respiratory illness symptoms between November 2019 March 2020 as part a community-based viral surveillance study. Chi-square tests log-binomial models used assess association...
ABSTRACT Background Testing programs have been utilized as part of SARS-CoV-2 mitigation strategies on university campuses, and it is not known which successfully identify cases contain outbreaks. Objective Evaluation a testing program to control transmission at large university. Design Prospective longitudinal study using remote contactless enrollment, daily mobile symptom exposure tracking, self-swab sample collection. Individuals were tested if the participant was (1) exposed case,...
