While this report explores a wide range of options, from At-Home Kits to setting up a complex lab, given that the pandemic won’t be ending soon, most companies will want to optimize for the most cost-effective, long-term solution that provides test results quickly, before a viral outbreak spreads at a work site.
As we projected in our last report, the pandemic won’t be ending before 2022 and the WHO expects it might even take four or five years to fully control the virus globally. Hence, it will be critical for organizations to implement some type of COVID-19 diagnostic testing since even with social distancing, PPE and other preventative measures in place, asymptomatic cases can continue to spread the virus at work sites. PreScouter sees this report as a significant starting point for organizations seeking to implement regular, preventative workplace testing.
