A mobile lab run by University of Illinois System subsidiary Shield T3 was set up Friday in Lot 64 near the WARF building. The lab will conduct diagnostic PCR testing of saliva samples collected at sites across campus from students and employees starting in January. Along with the Safer Badgers app and Badger Badge access pass, this expanded testing will enhance the safety of the campus community. UW–Madison is looking for COVID-19 health technicians to assist in sample collection for testing; apply here.
