The Role of Frequent Point-of-care Molecular Workplace Surveillance for Miners
Keeping Rural Minority 'Essential' Workplaces Open Safely During the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Role of Frequent Point-of-care Molecular Workplace Surveillance for Miners (Short Title: The Miners' Pandemic Project)

Detailed Description
Specific Aim 1: To determine the acceptance rate to frequent point-of-care molecular workplace surveillance among miners.
Hypothesis 1: Miners will have a cumulative acceptance rate of frequent testing at ≥85%, with the added objective of exploring difference in acceptance by miner characteristics.
Specific Aim 2: To determine the ability to detect the presence of SARS-CoV-2 by point-of-care molecular workplace surveillance in a real-world setting of miners.
Hypothesis 2: The sensitivity of the screening test in a real-world study setting is a) comparable to that described by others in controlled settings, and b) positively associated with viral load in upper respiratory specimens (latter measured in nose and nasopharynx using quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction or RT-PCR).
Specific Aim 3: To determine the effectiveness and implementation costs of frequent point-of-care molecular workplace surveillance on reducing incident infection rates of SARS-CoV-2.
Hypothesis 3A: Frequent point-of-care molecular testing over six months in the intervention mine will result in lower incident seropositivity rates compared to the control mine.
Hypothesis 3B: Frequent point-of-care molecular surveillance in the intervention mine is cost-effective compared to the control mine.
Specific Aim 4: To determine novel predictive host factors associated with incident SARS-CoV-2 infection in miners.
Hypothesis 4: Miners with incident infection demonstrate less frequent use of cloth face-coverings outside the workplace, greater mine dust exposure intensity, presence of dust-related lung disease, and racial/ethnic minority status than those not infected.
