CDC 2023 School Guidance:
CDC states COVID-19 testing is a safe, effective way to help prevent the spread of COVID-19
When prevention strategies are consistently and correctly used, the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the school environment is decreased. - CDC
Regular school-based testing, in addition to COVID-19 Vaccination, physical distancing, and proper mask wearing, is a safe, effective way to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and help keep schools open for in-person learning. Many people with COVID-19, especially children and teens, don’t have symptoms but can still spread the virus. Regular testing helps find people who have the virus before it can spread to others or cause an outbreak. This is especially important for families and staff with younger children at home, those at risk for getting seriously sick from COVID-19, and those who are not up to date on their COVID-19 vaccines.
For every five additional cases per 100,000 population in regional incidents, the risk of a school outbreak increased by 72%
