Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 testing frequency may be as important as test performance for disease control. We analyzed 1,292,165 SARS-CoV-2 test results among 361 long-term care facilities across Florida after implementing twice monthly testing (June 2020-April 2021). Our findings demonstrate that an increase in testing frequency reduced weekly case rates.
