Brief Summary:
Study Objectives:
To perform COVID-19 diagnostic and serologic testing on emergency medical personnel in Polk County to determine:
1. COVID-19 prevalence
2. Rate of convalesced personnel (+antibodies)
3. Rate of asymptomatic carriers
Detailed Description:
This observational study involves a community wide program offering free COVID-19 testing to county front line workers, including EMS personnel, board of county commissioners and sheriffs' office personnel. These personnel will also be asked to fill out a survey that asks about their medical history and which of any symptoms they have experienced in the prior three weeks. The survey is voluntary and written informed consent is obtained . EMS personnel can still get the free testing even if they do not want to fill out the survey.
The primary objective of the study is to describe the prevalence of COVID-19 antigen and IgM and IgG markers amongst our county/EMS workers.
The secondary objective is to describe whether the antigen/antibody markers are significantly correlated to the presence of a set of symptoms in the prior 3 weeks, and/or to the baseline demographics such as age, sex, and presence of co-morbidities.
