Introducing RAT Tracker—a citizen-powered tool for anonymous reporting of rapid antigen test results for Toronto students. The data collected will fill a gap in our understanding of Omicron’s spread and inform the COVID-19 situation at each Toronto school. thelocal.to/rat-tracker/

It takes only 30 seconds to complete and asks for four pieces of information: date of test, age, result, and school. If you would like to contribute, please fill out RAT Tracker here. thelocal.to/rat-tracker/

@thelocalhealth Cool idea! Can people also submit pcr test results? (If people start showing symptoms at school, those schools are supposed to have take-home pcr tests on hand)

@thelocalhealth Great idea - but can't select school when using the site (android following link provided)

@thelocalhealth @BogochIsaac My sons school isn’t listed

@thelocalhealth Is this elementary-high schools or including post secondary?

@thelocalhealth Great work! Is there a way for us to look at the map in detail or only submit?

@thelocalhealth Would love to partner with you on this. I’d like to first ensure this is HIPAA compliant. And would also like to see the rest of Ontario done.

@thelocalhealth Alberta needs this!

@thelocalhealth @Billius27 Why are we paying for a Ont government? These people are all we need in Ontario: @thelocalhealth @vactrackcanada @VaxHuntersON @C19TestFinders @imgrund @Billius27 @drmwarner @SharkawyMD @andryou @jkwan_md @nilikm @NaheedD @birgitomo @DFisman @DrKateTO @BogochIsaac

@thelocalhealth @NathanStall Wonderful idea- congrats to those who developed it- a labour of love and need for data- can this be expanded outside of the GTA?

@thelocalhealth @normsworld Again, the work of our provincial government being done by citizens. Why are they even getting paid- to give out panettone or going to he cottage when they are needed the most.

@thelocalhealth Please add Ottawa and the rest of Ontario 🙏

@thelocalhealth Amazing to see the citizens of Ontario care more about what's going with Covid transmission than what the administration does. Thank you!

@thelocalhealth This is so needed. Can this be expanded to other jurisdictions (york/Peel/Durham) & have a private school option (or insert school name). Would be helpful reporting across all jurisdictions.

@thelocalhealth @BogochIsaac Amazing, would be great if there was a provincial one for each PHU too.

@thelocalhealth Outbreaksnearme.org already existed and covers all of Canada and the US (choose country at top)

@thelocalhealth This is what we're forced to when the government abandons its responsibilities. @fordnation wants to keep us in the dark about COVID cases in schools and daycares.

@thelocalhealth Never too late to get in on the Covid grift

@thelocalhealth @IrfanDhalla We need this everywhere! Great idea! #onted

@thelocalhealth Please please expand this amazing tool!!!

@thelocalhealth covidecolesquebec.org/cartes-des-cas…

@thelocalhealth I’ve added at least 30 tonight that are all fake

@thelocalhealth Hi @thelocalhealth - would you be open to possibly expanding this into Peel and other Regions?

@thelocalhealth @bradwouters @prairietara Look, more folks with the same idea!!
