Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn how to better detect infection and understand how severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes lung disease and is spread. The novel device called PneumoniaCheck is a safe way to collect material from the lung from coughs. Study participants will collect cough specimens over a 24 hour period.
