The impact of population-wide rapid antigen testing on SARS-CoV-2 prevalence in Slovakia

Acknowledgments: We thank all health care workers, Slovak armed forces, and countless volunteers who helped with the execution of the mass testing campaign. Further, we thank all participants who contributed their time to help curb the pandemic and particularly those who had to quarantine as a result of their or their household’s or contact’s test result.

mass rapid antigen testing in Slovakia

mass rapid antigen testing in Slovakia
Abstract
Mass antigen testing in Slovakia conducted in October and November 2020 is a source of important data. We perform its statistical analysis and study epidemic geographical patterns. We observe exponentially distributed test positivity and exponential trends in its geographical distribution, and its approximately 10 km spatial characteristic correlation length.
A small correlation between positivity in two consecutive testing rounds appeared on the municipalities level but it significantly increased on the counties level.
Recent 7-day PCR tests incidence per capita served as a good proxy for antigen test positivity. Positivity of non-residents was higher than of residents when mass testing was offered only in municipalities with the highest positivity in previous rounds. Reduction in positivity in repeated testing increased with the positivity in the earlier round. Our results contribute to better understanding of pa ....
