Covid test-to-stay programs work

Test-to-stay programs in pre-K-8 schools minimize new COVID-19 infections and can help reduce the need for prolonged quarantines for exposed individuals, reports a new Northwestern Medicine study.

The study's findings are congruent with results from test-to-stay (TTS) programs in New Jersey, Utah and Massachusetts. This is the first study to estimate days of learning saved by test-to-stay programming in an elementary and middle school setting.
