Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of Participants Testing Positive or Negative for SARS-CoV-2 Virus From Swab and Saliva Samples - Processed in Mexico
Number of participants testing positive or negative for SARS-CoV-2 virus from sample collected via swab versus saliva sample collected from Salivette® Cortisol, which samples were processed in Mexico.
Percentage of Participants Testing True Positive or True Negative for SARS-CoV-2 Virus From Swab and Saliva Samples - Processed in Germany
Percentage of participants testing true positive or true negative for SARS-CoV-2 virus from Swab and Saliva samples being processed in Germany was reported. The swab sample was used as the reference. Among participants who were tested positive from swab samples, those who were tested positive from saliva samples were classified as "true positive". Among participants tested negative from swab samples, those who were tested negative from saliva samples were then classified as "true negative".
