Dear Editor:An open letter to Peter Sovran, director of education with the Upper Grand District School Board (UGDSB). I am a parent and taxpayer who’s very concerned about the UGDSB’s redistribution of the government’s SARS-CoV-2-testing devices (otherwise known as rapid test kits). How is your board guaranteeing a sterile environment when you are opening a sealed medical testing device and redistributing them to the families that support this board? How are you guaranteeing there is no contaminants being added to rapid test kits? Any medical professional will tell you that if a seal is broken – especially on a medical device that deals with biologicals (in-vitro), you should not use it.
