With events, travel, conferences, and people returning to the workplace, it’s crucial to make sure your organization has a fast and effective COVID-19 testing program in place. With stronger variants popping up all the time and vaccination rates below where they need to be, one of the best ways to minimize the spread is with an abundance of testing. Many organizations and agencies have found great success by testing as often as possible to catch cases early and prevent mass transmission. In order to do this, your organization needs to know which test kit will work best for your needs. iPromo carries a wide variety of COVID-19 test kits in bulk<\/a> so you can find the best fit to make sure your testing program is successful.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s the difference between screening and diagnostic testing?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Diagnostic Testing<\/span><\/h3>\n

A Diagnostic test is administered by a professional when a patient shows symptoms of COVID-19, or has had a recent exposure. There are various types of diagnostic kits used for this type of testing, and some are specifically for people who are already exhibiting symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n

Screening Programs<\/span><\/h3>\n

A Screening Program is put into place and administered when you need to test a large number of people that you don\u2019t have any reason to suspect have COVID. This is the kind of testing that you want to administer at an airport, a music festival, and potentially restaurants or other gathering spots. These tests need to be fast, easy, and accurate. And ideally, they need to be able to be administered by a layperson and not require a healthcare professional to get a quick result. The FDA has authorized some tests for screening.<\/span><\/p>\n

At-Home Test Kits<\/span><\/h3>\n

At-home test kits are a great option for testing in the comfort of home before going back to a workplace or attending large gatherings. Our at-home solutions are prescribed for self-use with self-collected swabs from the nostril, from people 15 years of age or older and in some cases from 2 years of age if administered by an adult. These kits are accurate and effective as an alternative to on-site testing:<\/span><\/p>\n
