DoorDash and Cellex, which specializes in point-of-care testing, are teaming up to help restaurant employees get faster access to COVID-19 testing kits at a discounted cost.
The partnership will make over 1,150 SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Antigen test kits available to U.S. merchant partners, according to a DoorDash announcement.
As of Feb. 16, DoorDash partner merchants, with three or less locations, will have access to an online order form to get a kit. The self-contained kits include 25 unique tests — 25 test cassettes, 25 swabs and 25 vials. No reader or lab equipment is required.
An informational email will be sent to eligible DoorDash restaurant partners today with details for applying for the kit. Upon approval, independent restaurant partners will be sent details on how to purchase testing kits. DoorDash has created a FAQ for interested partners.
