Alberta's rapid-testing pilot project at two Calgary schools has so far yielded zero positive COVID-19 tests at one of them, while the other school would not reveal its testing results, but said its outbreak is now over. The pilot project kicked off at the Calgary Board of Education's (CBE) Rundle School on March 18, and at Calgary Catholic School District's (CCSD) St. John XXIII School on March 22. Both were chosen for the pilot while in outbreak status, meaning the schools each had five or more positive cases. Andrea Holowka, superintendent of learning services with the CCSD, said rapid testing hasn't detected a single case at St. John XXIII. The CBE wouldn't say if any positive tests were detected in the pilot project at its school, instead directing that question to the provincial government, which didn't provide an answer, either.
