Abstract

Abstract Nursing homes and long-term care facilities represent highly vulnerable environments for respiratory disease outbreaks, such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We describe a COVID-19 outbreak in a nursing home that was rapidly contained by using a universal testing strategy of all residents and nursing home staff.
