II. SUMMARY
In responds to the coronavirus disease 2019(COVID 19) pandemic, most schools in the US
transitioned to remote learning in march 2020. All schools were part of the Archdiocese of
Chicago, a large private school system of 160 K-8 schools in Chicago and surroundings suburbs
that offered parents the choice of in person or remote learning starting in the fall of 2020. For
screening testing, oropharyngeal swabs were collected at each school from study participants and
stored in universal transport medium. Before testing, a personal or household history of COVID-
19 test result, symptoms and exposures were collected by phone and/or electric survey. the
overall and median proportion of in person students tested among all schools was 20% ranging
from 7% to 52% by school. Study participants were also contacted regarding personal and
household history of covid 19 testing and symptoms present before screening test. these cohorts
were quarantined and 193 individuals from these cohorts were offered testing. getting back to in-
person classes safely is an important goal. the potential benefits of testing if risk mitigation
strategies are relaxed, and the potential benefits in communities during periods of high
community COVID-19 incident and/or prevalence of variant of concerns.

III. NURSING IMPLICATION

a) To nursing Practice
In related to nursing practice. this article helps me to realize how important the PCR and
oropharyngeal swabbing is. specially in my course, I really need to go to hospital for my
duty and school for my RD and my simulation duties. we need to do a swabbing or PCR
test to know if we have COVID since we have the so called asymptomatic and
symptomatic and of course to prevent transmission of covid-19 to other people specially
to our loved ones.

b) To nursing education
In related to nursing education, many still do not believe in COVID 19 and continue
disobey the rules given, especially in the year 2021. this article helps to educate those
who do not believe in COVID 19 and continue to not follow the rules and protocols
regarding covid19. this also states that physical distancing and wearing a mask is
effective to prevent transmission of covid19 so right now, even though we are already
vaccinated we still need to follow that because we don’t know what will happen,

c) To nursing insight
In related to nursing research, testing could be potentially useful in identifying the
relative impact of individual risk mitigation strategy to guide iterative deescalation of
these strategies. especially as vaccination increase. there finding support the safety of
person learning and question the benefits of screening testing in schools that use proper
COVID19 risk mitigation strategies

IV. Personal insight


doing the screening with students and staffs is important especially when the patient is
asymptomatic. I agree to the article, on what they did. they assess rates of asymptomatic sever
acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 positivity in k-8 schools with risk mitigations
procedures in place, and they evaluate sars-cov-2 transmission ins school and household contacts
of these positive individuals. they do survey if they can do ftf classes.
