Universal versus targeted coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) arrival antigen testing on subsequent COVID-19 infections in military trainees

Abstract

In this retrospective cohort study of military trainees, symptomatic-only coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) arrival antigen testing decreased isolation requirements without increasing secondary cases compared to universal antigen testing. Symptomatic-only arrival antigen testing is a feasible alternative for individuals entering a congregant setting with a high risk of COVID-19 transmission.
