Idaho public health districts have begun receiving their first shipments of rapid coronavirus tests, which could allow schools in North Idaho and Southeastern Idaho to begin testing late next week.
But some health districts have yet to disclose how testing in schools will work, or when it will begin.
The Idaho Press reports, officials in the Panhandle Health District, Southeastern Idaho Public Health and Central District Health confirmed they have received shipments of tests.
Gov. Brad Little last week unveiled the new rapid antigen testing program and said he would prioritize testing for schools.
The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare also distributed about $2.5 million in grants to health districts for testing teachers and school staff.
