Associations of SARS-CoV-2 PCR positivity with clinical symptoms and race/ethnicity: The household transmission study
These findings underscore the importance of symptom-based surveillance and highlight ongoing racial and ethnic disparities in SARS-CoV-2 transmission risk. This study also demonstrates the feasibility of longitudinal, self-administered testing and offers a scalable model for investigating transmission dynamics of respiratory viruses in community settings.
