• Comparison of Patient and Health Care Worker Collected 3D-Printed Mid-Turbinate Nasal Swabs for Detection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) Rochester, Minn.

  The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of patients, who are not healthcare workers (HCWs) and have no prior training in swab collection, to collect, package, and ship their own self-collected MT swab specimens (both commercial and Mayo Clinic 3-D printed versions) by following written instructions.

• Evaluation of Patient-Collected Saliva as a Source for Detection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by Nucleic Acid Amplification Testing. Rochester, Minn.

  Compare Patient-Collected Saliva and Health Care Worker Collected Nasopharyngeal and Nasal Mid-Turbinate Swabs for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Detection by nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT). All tests will be performed using previously-validated, EUA NAATs that are available in the Clinical Microbiology laboratory, including the Mayo Clinic laboratory developed test (LDT).
