COVID-19 Diagnostics Commons Sharing information and best practices that advance our knowledge and improve our decisions moving forward.

Decision Theater and ASU College of Health Solutions have teamed up to create the COVID-19 Testing Commons. The COVID-19 Testing Commons is a searchable global test database, that provides a host of metrics, including quality data and regulatory status for the 1,400+ tests on the market and in the pipeline. ASU staff designed this database to address the need for a comprehensive resource for employers, public health officials, insurance companies, and others to access COVID-19 tests on the market or in development. This database includes information about test type, regulatory status (e.g., EUA), test technology, collection sample, country of origin, and will be updated weekly to provide the most current data.
