Group I: Self-Testing GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Lay users (self-tester or caregiver) will be provided with a Panbio™ COVID-19/Flu A&B Rapid Panel Self-Test kit. Each lay user will collect one mid-turbinate nasal swab from both nostrils, perform and interpret the Panbio™ COVID-19/Flu A&B Rapid Panel Self-Test. All procedures for testing and result interpretation, including sample collection and extraction will be conducted by the lay user following the Instructions for Use provided in the kit. Participants will be asked to document their result interpretation and will pass the test to site staff, who will document their interpretation of the result. In addition, a second swab will be collected by study staff and eluted in Viral Transport Medium (VTM).
