ABSTRACT

Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is a global pandemic that has placed a significant burden on the healthcare systems. Curbside screening is a safe and efficient way of delivering SARS-CoV-2 testing. Less than 10% of these patients returned to the emergency center at a minimum of 7 days follow up.
