Many schools have relaxed their COVID policies and how they handle testing for the virus since the height of the pandemic, but O'Connell says there still appears to be plenty of demand for testing in schools. "We are optimistic that the school districts across the country will take advantage of these free tests and put them to use," she says.
Schools will have the freedom to use the tests however they see fit. O'Connell says they'll "encourage" school districts to share them with students, staff, family members and others in the community. "I can imagine a situation where a student in one of the classes has COVID and a teacher sends everybody home with a COVID test in their backpack," she says.
