Pilot project for Rapid COVID-19 tests begins in elementary schools
The 海角社区 will begin a pilot project for rapid tests for COVID-19 at four elementary schools- St-Raphael and Sinclair Laird in Park Extension, Our Lady of Pompei in Ahuntsic and Gerald McShane in Montreal North – once the necessary training is completed.
These tests will be used for students who develop COVID-19 symptoms during the day and priority will be given in high-transmission areas. Parents will be asked for permission for the testing by completing a consent form provided by the school.
Plans call for the remainder of the EMSB primary schools to be on board with the rapid tests in late October.
