This study examines the pivotal role of COVID-19 testing in mitigating disease spread, particularly in underserved rural communities facing health care access challenges. The Southern Nevada Health District successfully implemented a vending program in Clark County, offering free COVID-19 antigen test kits. Strategically located based on health equity indices and featuring a user-friendly, multilingual registration process, these machines proved effective in reaching rural populations. The cost-effective model suggests potential adoption for broader public health interventions and services in other regions. (. 2024;114(S7):S558-S561. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307718).
本研究探讨了 COVID-19 检测在减轻疾病传播方面的关键作用，特别是在面临医疗保健获取挑战的服务不足的农村社区。南内华达州卫生区在克拉克县成功实施了一项自动售货机计划，提供免费的 COVID-19 抗原检测试剂盒。这些机器根据公平健康指数进行战略性定位，并采用用户友好、多语言的注册流程，在接触农村人口方面非常有效。这种具有成本效益的模式表明，在其他地区，该模型可能适用于更广泛的公共卫生干预和服务。（2024；114(S7):S558-S561。https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2024.307718）。
