It's Quick. It's Easy. It's FREE!

- Overview
The goal of this program is to identify individuals who are asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic to prevent the spread COVID-19 virus in the workplace, at home and in the community.
The Stouffville Chamber of Commerce is committed to the safety and wellbeing of individuals in our community and will act as a distribution centre for Rapid Antigen Screening kits. These kits are to be used as self-screening in the workplace under the guidance of proper Health and safety Guidelines provided.
Kits are available for FREE to local businesses (Chamber and Non-Chamber members) who have up to 150 employees. This program is funded by the Federal and Provincial Governments.
Screening people in the workplace with rapid antigen testing will help identify individuals with COVID-19, protect others from exposure and provide much needed data about viral prevalence within job sites and communities across Canada.
In order to participate in this program you will need to sign the following agreement:

- The Process
- Interested businesses should fill out the easy order request form (below).
- Once we have processed your order, the Chamber will contact the business and book a time slot for them to come and pick up their kits. Walk-ins will not be accepted.
- Times will be booked in 15-minute intervals. Each business needs to assign a single Screening Supervisor Designate who will be the contact person and the one picking up the kit (1 person per business).
- First Time Pick Up: Prior to arriving please take a few minutes to watch the video provided below. In order to participate in this program you will need to print, read and sign the Antigen Screening Program Agreement, bring it with you to your first scheduled appointment.

- Upon Arrival
- The Business Designate must provide the completed (Antigen Screening Program Agreement). Please download, print, read, sign and bring with you to the first scheduled pickup.
- Designate will be required to watch a short training video (below) prior to your first pick-up appointment. You will be asked to sign and attest that you HAVE watched the video.
- Masks and physical distancing are greatly appreciated at our location.
- It is important to note that rapid test kits need to be stored between 2ºC to 30ºC, so it is important that they do not sit in a hot car.
- Reminder
If you or someone you live with gets a positive result on a rapid antigen test, you no longer need to book a PCR test to confirm your results. If you are fully vaccinated and otherwise healthy, or are under 12 years old, isolate for five days starting when the symptoms began or from the date of the test, whichever came first. Those who are not fully vaccinated or are immunocompromised must isolate for 10 days.
A positive result:
- is a good indication that you have COVID-19
- does not need to be confirmed by a PCR test
- does not need to be reported to a public health unit unless otherwise directed by public health
Data Reporting No Longer Required
Any business with over 150 employees is asked to email: ryan@stouffvillechamber.ca for direction on how to order their kits directly.
