- saliva (spit) tests are 50-70% able to catch vaccinated infected persons that day, especially if they are in the period during which they exhale the most virus. These tests cost only 2,7 euro and are non-intrusive; only a bit of spit is required, and 15 minutes later the result is known. It does - however - require a lot of volunteers to aid in taking and processing these tests. Performing 75 tests per hour per volunteer is possible. Sponsors (such as our company) could contribute to pay for these tests, and help in organising it (but it would require a lot of helping hands each morning of the event).
I did not really think about if it could be feasible, just an idea: maybe hotels could help. Assuming most of participants will reside in a hotel and the price for one night is between 80 - 130 euros, hotels could support in a) sponsoring: 2,70 euro from 80 to 130 is not much (maybe there are participants willing to pay 2,70 euro additional to the hotel price, I would be willing if it helps) b) testing: maybe spit tests could be effected directly at hotels every morning Just an idea. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Salutations distinguées, A scheener Grüeß, Bescht Gréiss, Kind regards, Meikel
