CASE STUDY: NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
In partnership with the New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH), Rover Labs provided end-to-end COVID-19 PCR testing for students, faculty, and other staff in public, private, and charter Pre-K-12 schools throughout the State of New Jersey.
CHALLENGES
New Jersey schools needed to resume in-person K-12 education for the 2020 - 2021 school year to decrease the lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. To achieve this, a healthy environment that significantly minimized the risk of transmitting the COVID-19 virus was required for students, teachers, and staff to learn and work safely and uninterrupted.
