Brief Summary

Point-of-care testing can provide an additional layer of protection to reduce transmission of COVID-19 safely and effectively in the population, and if such tests can be self-administered, barriers to access may be reduced. The investigators will conduct a study among those self-identifying as asymptomatic for COVID-19 to evaluate the reliability and feasibility of self-administration of a point-of-care nasal swab test, determine the sensitivity and specificity of the point-of-care nasal swab test relative to reverse transciptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing, and gather quantitative and qualitative data on the acceptability and self efficacy of self-administration.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Concordance

    Concordance (calculated using Cohen's Kappa) between self administered and health care professional administered SD Biosensor rapid antigen test results.

    2 months

  • Ability of rapid antigen test to detect COVID-19 positive

    \>80% sensitivity and \>95% specificity for SD Biosensor rapid antigen test among asymptomatic population

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Acceptability of self administration

Self administration

EXPERIMENTAL

The participant will self administer the SD Biosensor. Their rapid antigen test result will be compared to health care professional administered SD Biosensor

Device: SD Biosensor

Interventions
