Classroom testing can offer districts the population-level data they need to make informed public health decisions at a fraction of the cost of individual testing. Today, we announced a free 5-week pooled testing pilot for 100s of schools.

A week ago, @RosenthalHealth asked Dr. Fauci: “If you had a national plan for testing, what would it be?” His answer: “Surveillance testing. Literally flooding the system with tests.” At Ginkgo, we’re proud to do our part.

[Reshma Shetty @reshmapshetty]

So proud of the wonderful team at Ginkgo - their willingness to pitch in and do what we can to be part of the COVID-19 response efforts has been amazing to see.

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

I'm so proud of the work from the team @ginkgo over the last 8 months that have been very challenging for everyone. We'll keep throwing our efforts at Ginkgo into response. Ultimately all of our collective actions across the world will beat this thing -- happy to do our part🙌

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Thrilled to announce we've been approved for a $1.1B loan from @DFCgov to expand our platform at @Ginkgo. Biotech platforms can be spun up to respond to a biological emergency -- and will be part of a lasting biosecurity capability for the US: 🧵
