Verified at-home flu tests

ScreenMe verifies influenza A/B antigen self-tests that members perform at home, so organisations can screen for flu during the season without on-site testing.

Why flu screening matters again

Recent European flu seasons have started early and run hard, and influenza is the pathogen most likely to close a classroom or thin a shift in winter. Self-tests for influenza A and B are now sold in pharmacies across Europe, alone or combined with COVID-19 and RSV.

Which kits

Any standard influenza A/B antigen self-test, nasal or saliva, and any combination kit that includes influenza. ScreenMe reads the result the kit shows and verifies who performed the test.

When organisations screen for flu

Before a shift or a school day during a wave. Before events with vulnerable guests. On return to work or school after illness. In care settings, on the schedule the programme sets.

What the certificate says

Member identity confirmed, test verified, result as shown by the kit, date and time. Coordinators see the status; the member keeps the certificate.

Frequently asked questions

Does ScreenMe tell the difference between influenza A and B?

It reads what the kit shows; kits that distinguish A and B are reported as such.

Are flu self-tests reliable?

Antigen self-tests are most reliable in the first days of symptoms; follow the kit's instructions and your health authority's guidance.

Can we combine flu with COVID-19 and RSV screening?

Yes, with combination kits; see the combination-tests page.
