COVID-19 testing on Tyndall; safeguards the mission, ensures proper precautions
325th Fighter Wing

The 325th Operational Medical Readiness Squadron, under command of the 325th Medical Group, conducts COVID-19 testing on Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida, Aug. 30, 2021. Tyndall AFB conducts randomized testing, called Tier 4 Surveillance Testing, meant to identify asymptotic positive patients; the patient exhibits no symptoms but is in fact carrying and spreading the virus unbeknownst to the individual. Results are given to the patient within 48 to 72 hours. This type of testing safeguards our other missions on base and ensures proper precautions are taken to make sure that the virus does not continue to spread. (U.S. Air Force video by Staff Sgt.
