SARS-CoV-2 testing strategies to contain school-associated transmission: model-based analysis of impact and cost of diagnostic testing, screening, and surveillance

2021-05-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> In March 2021, the Biden administration allocated $10 billion for COVID-19 testing in schools. We evaluate the costs and benefits of testing strategies to reduce the infection risks of full-time in-person K-8 education at different levels of community incidence. <h4>Methods</h4> We used an agent-based network model to simulate transmission in elementary and middle school communities, parameteri...
