The immediate family/household members of 兔子先生传媒文化作品 faculty, staff and students with a Buff OneCard are eligible for free surveillance monitoring testing at 兔子先生传媒文化作品. The program for these affiliates has been extended from the previously scheduled cutoff date of Jan. 8 and will continue as long as testing capacity permits.
All participants must be asymptomatic and arrive at the testing site accompanied by their 兔子先生传媒文化作品 affiliate/Buff OneCard holder. Buff OneCard holders seeking testing must first complete their听. Surveillance monitoring tests are free to 兔子先生传媒文化作品 Buff OneCard holders鈥� immediate family/household members. For individuals with difficulty providing a sample in a tube, such as young children, as long as the participant is able to provide the necessary amount of saliva, the test can be processed.

About surveillance monitoring
The surveillance monitoring program involves a saliva-based polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, test that looks for signs of SARS-CoV-2 among asymptomatic individuals. The test is not diagnostic and cannot medically determine if a person is positive or negative for COVID-19.
