For Air Travelers
Knowledge that gives you wings
Because travel is a part of life, and everybody’s health is connected.

XpresCheck and Concentric are collaborating with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to detect COVID-19 variants that could be introduced into the U.S. by international travelers. Find us in four international airports – JFK, EWR, ATL, and SFO.

Thank you for participating!
By taking our free PCR tests in the airport and at home, you are helping public health officials stay informed.

What is a pooled test?
A pooled test combines lower nasal swab samples from several people and tests them together. A pooled test shows whether anyone in the pool is infected with COVID-19, but it does not show specifically who is infected.

Why should I participate?
