Plan Safer Events with COVID-19 Testing

Many events, particularly mass gatherings, like conferences, festivals, concerts, sports events, involve travel. Traveling creates countless opportunities to come into contact with the virus. For example, transportation vehicles and hubs, like airplanes, airports, busses, and bus stops, can make it difficult to maintain social distance. These areas may also be poorly ventilated, making it easier to inhale respiratory droplets from an infected person. Travel also involves utilizing shared spaces, like public restrooms and seating areas, which may have contaminated surfaces.

How Can Testing Help?

Just because gatherings increase the risk of being exposed to the virus doesn't necessarily mean we need to avoid them altogether. Event planners need to be more intentional about creating a plan that helps to reduce the transmission of COVID-19. Testing can be an incredibly effective tool, especially when combined with other mitigation strategies.

Creating a Safer Environment for Everyone

By setting up testing sites before an event, sponsors can proactively identify people testing positive for the virus and prevent those individuals from attending or working the function. In addition to creating a safer environment for attendees, vendors, and staff, this protocol also helps protect others that a person who tests positive would have come into contact with had they not known they were infected.
