XPRIZE Rapid COVID Testing
XPrize快速COVID檢測
Society’s most vulnerable populations have been heavily affected by COVID-19 with tests being inaccessible, too expensive or too slow. Communities have been forced to shut down and economies have received a heavy blow. Launched on July 28, 2020, XPRIZE RAPID COVID Testing is a $5 million, 6-month competition that aims to increase COVID-19 testing capabilities dramatically so people can return safely to everyday activities as soon as possible.
社會上最脆弱的人羣受到新冠肺炎的嚴重影響，檢測手段難以獲得，檢測費用太高，或者檢測速度太慢。社區被迫關閉，經濟受到沉重打擊。XPRIZE快速COVID檢測於2020年7月28日啟動，是一項耗資500萬美元的為期6個月的比賽，旨在大幅提高新冠肺炎的檢測能力，使人們能夠儘快安全地重返日常活動。
A total of 219 teams, among them the Infrawear - Genesprint Group team, have moved on to the semi-finals after being assigned a “pass” by XPRIZE judges. Semi-finalist teams will be sent a blinded Proficiency Test Kit and be required to accurately identify which samples contain COVID-19. Teams will have one week to submit their results to the XPRIZE Data Collaborative, where their results will be scored on specificity, sensitivity, and limits of detection.
共有219支隊伍，其中包括Infrweet-Genesprint Group團隊，在獲得XPRIZE評委的“通行證”後，進入了半決賽。半決賽參賽隊伍將獲得盲人水平測試工具包，並被要求準確識別哪些樣本含有新冠肺炎。各隊將會有一每週將他們的結果提交給XPRIZE數據合作中心，在那裏他們的結果將根據特異性、靈敏度和檢測極限進行評分。
A $1-million prize will be awarded to each of the top five teams that develop frequent, fast, cheap and easy COVID-19 screening solutions.
前五名開發頻繁、快速、廉價和簡單的新冠肺炎篩查解決方案的團隊將獲得100萬美元的獎金。
