Or those who have been in recent contact with SARS-CoV-2 positive patients. Participants may be of any age, there is no upper or lower age limit.

Depending on the facility's viability and agreed contracting, the following study samples will be collected per patient:

Adult Population: Two (2) Nasal, AND/OR Two (2) Throat Swabs AND/OR, One (1) Saliva Sample

Paediatric Population: Two (2) Nasal, OR Two (2) Throat Swabs AND/OR, One (1) Saliva Sample

Once required samples and data have been collected, participation is complete. No follow-up or subsequent patient involvement is required.
