Delta Partners With CVS Health For Rapid COVID-19 Tests

Delta Air Lines Inc has said that it has partnered with CVS Health Corp to use its rapid-response nasal-swab test to detect COVID-19 among its flight crew.

Less Than 15 Minutes To Diagnose

The airline said that the CVS Health Return Ready tests, which are used for workplaces and college campuses, are being overseen by a CVS clinician at Delta hub crew lounges, and that they take less than 15 minutes to diagnose.

Mayo Clinic And Quest Diagnostics

Delta also has an ongoing partnership that started up in June with the Mayo Clinic and Quest Diagnostics Inc to test employees for active COVID-19 and antibodies.
