About this episode
Statistics Canada is mailing pinprick blood tests to forty eight thousand Canadians to gauge the virus’ prevalence in the country. In what is one of the first large-scale surveys of its kind in Canada, researchers are examining the blood samples for antibodies pertaining to the virus that causes COVID-19. Each participant will first be asked to fill out an online questionnaire. Upon giving consent, a testing kit will be mailed to that person’s address. The sampling tests sent randomly to Canadians include gloves, a needle, alcohol swabs and sealable package. The participants will be asked to prick their finger and make a print on each of five markings on a dried blood card.
