DIY COVID-19 Study on 2,000 Families Underway

The video discusses a DIY COVID-19 experiment involving 2000 families across 11 U.S. cities. The study aims to understand COVID-19 transmission within households, focusing on school-age children. Participants receive test kits at home and collect samples themselves, without direct researcher interaction. Led by Vanderbilt University, the study's findings could influence school procedures during the pandemic. Participants are selected from previous research, and data is collected via nasal swabs, stool, or blood samples. Results are expected by the end of the year.
