Coronavirus: U.S. health secretary discusses COVID-19 testing for postsecondary institutions

U.S. Health Secretary Alexander Azar spoke Monday about new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on how post-secondary institutions can protect students and staff when they return to work. He said this includes testing recommendations for both symptomatic and asymptomatic people who have had potential exposure to COVID-19. Azar said they can also work with local health officials to determine whether to test asymptomatic students and staff with no known exposure.
