NCT04872075

Brief Summary

The objective is to demonstrate if there is no increase in the risk of Sars-Cov-2 salivary carriage 7 days after a concert in the group participating in the event compared to a non participating group who stayed at home. The hypothesis is that a systematic screening of Sars-Cov-2 within the 3 days before the event allows to control the risk of transmission and prevent cluster of transmission during the concert.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with a positive salivary RT-PCR at day 7 after the date of the concert

    Prove the lack of increase of salivary carriage risk of SARS-CoV-2 on day 7 in participants present at the concert (experimental group) compared to non-participants at the event (control group)

    7 days after the concert (-1/+8 days)

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Number of participants in each group with a positive salivary RT-PCR the day of the concert

    The day of the concert

  • Molecular analysis of transmission clusters

    7 days after the concert (-1/+8 days)

  • Average percentage of participants wearing their mask adequately for the duration of event

    The day of the concert

  • Percentage of adequate mask wearing among participants according to location and time

    The day of the concert

  • Percentage of participants who downloaded and / or used the TousAntiCovid application at the time of inclusion

    The day of the concert
