The study assessed the uptake of serial at-home testing in children aged 2-17 years via mailed SARS-CoV-2 antibody and molecular tests. The completion rates demonstrated the feasibility and sustainability of at-home testing across different age groups.
Longitudinal virological and serological surveillance is essential for understanding severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) transmission among children but requires increased test capacity. We assessed the uptake of serial at-home testing in children (2-17 years) via mailed SARS-CoV-2 antibody and molecular tests. Completion rates demonstrated the feasibility and sustainability of at-home testing across age groups.
